Organiser's Description
Welcome to our 9th "fund-race" for solo runners or walkers and canicrossers event.
What is Canicross?
Canicross (canine cross-country) can be run with one dog, always attached to the runner. The runner wears a waist belt or hip harness to minimize stress on the back lumbar area. The dog wears a specifically designed harness for safe and unrestricted joint movement. The two are joined by a bungee cord or elastic line that reduces shock to both human and dog when the dog pulls. If you're new to the sport, here is how to get started. For additional questions, please reach out to Jennifer Tobits, canicross expert at [email protected].
