**WHAT IS CANICROSS?**
Canicross (canine + cross country) is simply running with your dog attached to your waist with a bungee leash. In this way, whenever the runner’s feet are off the ground, the dog pulls the runner forward. Here is a link for more info on the sport of Canicross.
The NEW 2K Farm Challenge race will mimic the first part of the half marathon course, but then feature that awesome lung busting climb to the finish!
