INDIVIDUAL & TEAM TRAINING

CREATE YOUR OWN TEAM AND TRAIN.

It concerns trainings organized by CaniCross Greece™ In collaboration with Canicross Clubs, Training Centers, coaching centers, associations, dog trainers, etc., numerous Canicrossers throughout Greece are forming their own groups with friends and running together.

GOALS OF GROUP TRAINING SESSIONS.

ΟΜΑΔΙΚΕΣ ΠΡΟΠΟΝΗΣΕΙΣ

The main goal of group training sessions is to introduce participants to the philosophy of CaniCross, with the ultimate aim of conditioning your dog and preparing for future events and races.
Get to know each other up close as teams (runner + dog) to understand your capabilities and individualities, with the goal of improvement.
During the training session, it’s possible to form more than one group based on pace and distance capabilities. Indeed, it is the best for newcomers to running (both runners and dogs).
ou socialize your dogs in the environment of a race (many runners, many dogs, lots of “noise,” race atmosphere, intensity, etc.).
You run short to medium distances, “pulling” each other at a better pace. These distances don’t have to be long. Each “team” can train on its own at distances/paces it can handle, having gained experience from our group sessions.
Discuss your equipment, diet, and hydration.
