The sixth edition of the Canicross 'Run with your dog' has a date.
It will be celebrated on Sunday, November 12, as informed today by Councilor for Sports, Juan Manuel García, in the presentation made with the volunteers of the Association 4 Patas Jumilla, Juana Santa and Carlos Willian.
The date is one month ahead of other editions "with the intention of avoiding the cold and the rains of other previous editions, which has subtracted participants", have indicated from the protector.
The objective of the test is, as always, to raise funds for the expenses of the animals that there are as much in the Shelter as in shelters.
Registration is 5 euros if they are made early and 6 on the day of the race.
They can be formalized in Mascoticas, Clinica Urbano and Comercial Pascacio.
The Canicross will start at 9.00 am and participants will have to complete a circuit prepared by Athletic Club Jumilla in front of the Indoor Swimming Pool, near the Municipal Sports Center.
There will be three categories: Sport (7.5 kilometers), Fan (3 kilometers) and Children (1 kilometer).
Three prizes will be distributed by category, donated by different companies.
In addition, all participants, both human and canine, receive a gift.
Coinciding with the race will be held a solidarity market.
From the organization have remembered different basic rules to participate such as the need for dogs to wear harnesses and straps of at least one meter, as well as a ban on wearing collars or pulling the animal during the race.
