Trail Running and Canicross in East Yorkshire

Trails & Tails is a timed trail event located in the East Yorkshire countryside. The event welcomes both solo runners and canicross participants, who may run with up to two dogs. The routes consist of runnable trails featuring gentle elevation changes and views of the surrounding rural landscape.

The event utilizes a staggered start system where canicross runners depart first to ensure sufficient space for all participants on the course. To ensure the safety of the animals, dogs must be attached using specific canicross harnesses and lines designed for pulling; standard walking harnesses or restrictive chest-strap styles are not permitted on the start line.

Participants can choose between two distinct distances:

  • 4 miles
  • 8 miles

The event is hosted at Field House Coffee Barn, which provides on-site parking and permanent toilet facilities. Food, drinks, and snacks are available at the venue. All participants receive electronic chip timing, and finishers are awarded a medal. Prizes are distributed for various categories, including specific awards for canine participants. Pre-ordered event apparel is also available for collection at the venue on the day of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
