Canicross rules and gear

All dogs running in canicross classes must wear designated canicross gear. Required equipment includes a harness with a Y chest band that does not restrict movement and a bungee lead of 4 to 6 feet attached to a hands-free waist belt. Only one dog may run with a handler unless entered in the 2-dog canicross class or the Dog Friendly 5k class. The 2-dog class will follow IFSS-style gear standards (single split bungee line with neckline) though the event is not IFSS sanctioned. Dog Friendly 5k rules are less restrictive, but face leads, flexi leashes, and no-pull harnesses are not allowed; a maximum of two dogs may run at a time.
