Calling all dog lovers!
Join us for a brand new charity run in celebration of World Dog Day on 26th August 2025!
With around 11 million dog owners in the UK, it’s clear we’re a nation of dog enthusiasts. What better way to show our love than by getting active for a great cause?
Did you know?
-
A dog’s sense of smell is up to 40 times stronger than ours.
-
They can detect illnesses like diabetes and cancer.
-
Dogs can sniff and breathe at the same time.
-
Unlike humans, dogs sweat through their paws, which helps regulate their body temperature—this is why they leave wet footprints!
-
Dogs have three eyelids, and their hearing is incredibly sharp.
-
Each ear is controlled by 18 muscles!
We’re proud to support Dogs Trust, donating 10% of all race entry fees to help them continue their amazing work.
