Unleash the Fun at this Dog-Friendly Race Event
JUNE 14, 2024
The Bark and Bolt race in Hendersonville, North Carolina, is a thrilling and heartwarming event that brings together both paws and people. This unique race allows dogs and their owners to celebrate physical fitness and outdoor activity together. It’s not just about the race, though; the event fosters a sense of community, promoting the bond between dogs and their owners while also raising awareness about responsible pet ownership. With its lively atmosphere and the joyful barks of four-legged participants, the Bark and Bolt race is an exciting race for humans and their canine companions to run or walk across the finish line together!
All races will begin and end in Hendersonville’s Patton Park. The 5K course is a scenic, out and back route that follows the Oklawaha Greenway. There are some moderate hills but the majority of the course is flat. The 1-mile race also follows the Greenway and has one hill just before the finish. It too is on paved surfaces and both courses will have a single water station along the route. The Paw Pursuit 100 Meter Dash is our shortest race for the most well-behaved pups. It’s a quick sprint where dogs run alongside their owners to demonstrate their speed and agility. Dogs will be divided into three weight classes: Lightweight, Middleweight, and Heavyweight.
5K | 3.1 Miles
Start Time
6:45PM
1 Mile
Start Time
6:00PM
Paw Pursuit | 100M
Start Time
6:30PM
We’re ecstatic to be hosting the Bark in the Park Dog Fair alongside the Bark & Bolt event, and you are woofingly welcome to join us! The fair will be located in the field at Patton Park, near the Start/Finish Line and will run from 5:00pm to 8:00pm.
With so many pup-sitively pet-friendly vendors, this is sure to be a tail-wagging event for all. If your business or organization is interested in becoming a pawtner of this event, please contact us at [email protected].
We look forward to welcoming you and your furry friends with open arms

Participating in a triathlon is an exhilarating journey that promises not only physical challenges but also personal growth and a profound sense of accomplishment. The Tri Local Duo was developed not only to elevate this challenge, but foster a community of encouragement, training and support. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or a novice looking for a transformative experience, the Tri Local Duo welcomes everyone.
The Tri Local Duo Series consists of the following Western North Carolina triathlons:
Hendersonville Triathlon | June 15, 2024
Asheville Triathlon | July 21, 2024
Embrace the opportunity to conquer your doubts, break through limits, and become a part of a supportive community of like-minded individuals.
iDaph Events has teamed up with iDream Athletes Foundation and other local, multi-sport community leaders to create and bring to you the Tri Local Community. We will be offering triathlon clinics, group training opportunities, a community to find training partners, pre-race course re-cons, transition zone coaching and of course two amazing, local triathlon events.
HOW TO JOIN:
To be eligible to attend the offerings and to participate in the Tri Local Community happenings, participants must sign up for the new TRI LOCAL DUO Series by registering for BOTH the 2024 Hendersonville Triathlon and the 2024 Asheville Triathlon. After you register for both events, you are automatically entered into the TRI LOCAL DUO Challenge.
Participate either virtually or in-person (or a combo of both.) We are offering this option for those of you that may have other events/vacations/family happenings on the race dates that might prevent you from attending in person but you want to be part of the new series and the community! If you participate virtually, you will race the distances wherever and whenever you want to and submit your results online.
All participants that are in the TRI LOCAL DUO Series will have exclusive access to all the fun and informative offerings coming up this winter/spring/summer. Due to limited resources and availability, ONLY participants that are registered for both of the 2024 Tri Local races are eligible to be part of the Tri Local Community and its offerings.
At the Asheville Triathlon on July 21st, participants that have completed both races will get a super cool and unique Tri Local Duo medal to commemorate their experience.
A night of Live Comedy with in our cozy, vape-friendly Rezonance VIP Lounge, featuring a 3-course cannabis-infused dinner and infused drink, samples from local brands, and a goodie bag of dispensary freebies worth $50+!
