Irchy Park Canicross is a 5K trail run for runners with dogs at Irchester Country Park in Northamptonshire, starting at 9am from near the top car park. It is a canicross event, meaning each runner covers the route with a four-legged partner. Race-day registration opens from 8am in a gazebo on the Little Meadow, where timing numbers or chips are collected.
The course is marked and uses grass, dirt, and hard-packed tracks through the country park woodland. A staggered start provides runners and dogs with more space, with marshals, Race Harborough volunteers, and professional first aid covering the route. The event is suitable for experienced canicross pairs and newcomers, with experts available to offer advice. Finishers receive medals, leading runners get prizes, and dogs receive treats at the finish.
