Dog Jog Virtual Challenge 2023

The Dog Jog is a 5k that you can do anywhere, any time and in any way you like! It’s perfect for people who want to do their own thing, particularly if mass challenge events are not for you (or your companion).

The great thing about Dog Jog is that participants can take part at their own pace (or the pace of their furry friend)! That might be a walk around their local park or a run over their local lush grassy hills - the most important thing is that they are keeping active and completing it together!

Participants can complete Dog Jog anywhere they like and on a date that suits them and their dog.
