Get ready for a tail-wagging day of adventure at Alderford Lake’s Dog Aquathlon — a fun-filled event where you and your four-legged companion can race, splash, and enjoy the great outdoors together!
Choose from four exciting, dog-friendly challenges:
🐾 5K Canicross (9:15am)
🐾 1.5K Canicross (9:45am)
🐾 Aquathlon – 1K run + 80m swim (10:30am)
🐾 Swim Only – 80m doggy paddle (10:30am)
What’s it all about?
Canicross: A cross-country running event where you and your dog work together as a team. With harnesses and bungee leads, you’ll navigate a scenic, safe trail that’s ideal for all experience levels.
Aquathlon: Take on a two-stage challenge! Begin with a 1K canicross run before diving in (literally!) for an 80m open-water swim with your dog.
Swim Only: If you fancy just the splash, go straight in for an 80m swim—ideal for water-loving pooches.
Equipment Requirements for Canicross:
Canicross-specific waist belt (for the human)
Bungee lead (max 2m when stretched)
Well-fitting canicross harness for your dog (no collars or restrictive harnesses)
Whether you’re racing for fun or for a personal best, this event is all about bonding with your dog, enjoying nature, and meeting fellow pet lovers.
Places are limited – don’t miss your spot in this unique, pawsome event!
