Give your dog a chance to be your running partner at this canicross meetup in Northwest Reno. Canicross is a trail-running sport where dogs run alongside their people while connected by a bungee line and waist belt, creating an active way to enjoy the outdoors together. Specialized gear isn’t required to join, but dogs must remain leashed and under control. Since some dogs need extra space when meeting new running companions, participants are asked to avoid on-leash greetings.
Meet at Sierra Vista Park, 1985 Beaumont Parkway in Reno. The gathering begins at 7:15 a.m. with introductions and an optional training demonstration, followed by the run at 7:30 a.m. The loop trail is just under two miles with about 200 feet of elevation gain, and the group may complete another lap if everyone is up for it. Coffee and pastries are planned for after the run. Attendees not already in NACC’s titling program must complete the event waiver before attending.
