Course Description:
This is the UK’s first obstacle course where animal lovers can take part in 2.5km and 5km runs with their pets.
There is no time limit to take part and the race isn’t timed.
If you are capable of running 2 - 3km without stopping, then you are fit enough to take part in the challenge.
There is a 2.5km and a 5km option, so please choose the distance that suits you, and if registering with a dog, one that suits your dog too.
Dogs must be sociable with other dogs and humans.
The course and obstacles are specially designed to allow two and four-legged friends to run together.
If you have registered to run with a dog either as an individual or as part of team, we will organise you into waves of up to 30 people and up to 12 dogs. Dogs may be separated into waves according to their breed.
There will be around 8 obstacles on the course suitable for all levels and abilities.
One or two will be wet or will have mud so be prepared to have fun.
We reserve the right to reduce or alter the event course to accommodate any unexpected complications on the day that may have an impact on Battersea Dogs & Cats Home staff, participants, volunteers and spectators.
