About this race

Announcing the 4th Annual Poppy Love 5K – “In Memory of Poppy”

We are excited to invite you to the 4th Annual Poppy Love 5K, a heartfelt event created in honor of a beloved pup named Poppy. This race began as a way for Poppy’s devoted owner to give back after her puppy survived Parvo with the help of a veterinary assistance program. Since then, it’s grown into a powerful fundraiser supporting local rescues that help animals in need.

In February 2025, sweet Poppy crossed the rainbow bridge, but her legacy lives on through this special event. Each step you take helps continue her mission—providing financial assistance to Oklahoma-based rescues and saving lives.

Event Options:

Timed 5K

1-Mile Walk

Virtual 5K

And yes—your dogs are welcome to join the fun!

Registrations after September 16 or on race day will not include a runner’s bag or t-shirt.

Let’s celebrate Poppy’s memory and help more pets get a second chance at life. ❤️
