About the Wagging Tails on the Trails
The course loops through mangroves and coastal hammock habitat along the Indian River Lagoon, so the surroundings are dense and green right up to the water's edge. Dogs are welcome on leash, and water bowls are out at the hydration stations. There is also a short kids' dash, with cupcakes at the finish line.
Parking is across the street from the start, split between a beach park and the Navy Seal Museum. The riverside side has no parking, so plan to walk a short distance over to the start area.

The Wagging Tails on the Trails has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
