Canicross Events
In March 2008 CaniX UK ran the first ever cani-cross event at Crufts, the largest dog show held in the UK. Over 100 runners and their dogs took part in the event.
Canicross events are held all over the UK and Europe by sled dog organisations, by canicross clubs and also many running events will allow runners to participate with their dogs. The European Canicross Federation (ECF) can be contacted for more information on events held within Europe.
Distances vary, with events held to cover distances from a mile up to 28 miles or more.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“By many a legendary tale of violence and wrong, as well as by events which have passed before their eyes, these people have been taught to look upon white men with abhorrence.... I can sympathize with the spirit which prompts the Typee warrior to guard all the passes to his valley with the point of his levelled spear, and, standing upon the beach, with his back turned upon his green home, to hold at bay the intruding European.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
