Organiser's Description
Welcome to our inaugural Run/Walk and Canicross (canine cross-country) Tofurkey Trot
Our Mission: Animal Run's vegan foot races raise funds for various animal welfare organizations, helping them save the lives of, find homes for, heal and comfort animal residents in need. Animal Run encourages athletes to support vegan businesses that promote human health and a thriving world.
What is Canicross?
Canicross can be run with one or two dogs, 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].
