If any of my clients are thinking about doing canicross, then Katie is your girl!
Looking for a fun way to get fitter with your best friend? Or just a new way to explore the countryside?
Canicross is the sport of trail running with your dog using specially designed equipment allowing dog and owner to run as a team. 🐕-🏃🏼♀️💨
Canicross originates from Europe as off season training for the sled dog community and has now become popular across the UK and Europe as a recreational sport for dog and owner teams.
Dogs must be fully grown to participate due to it being a high impact activity. This is to protect the bones, joints and growth plates while they are still growing. This is typically around 1 year to 18 months depending on the breed size, even up to 2 years in giant breeds.
