The 6th Korea Dryland Championship Racing was held on last May 4, 2008, in Seoul, South Korea. Canicross is the most popular event among other dog sports by KFSS (Korean Federation of Sleddog Sports) and in the 6th Championship, 250 people participated in Canicross. As a matter of fact, the number of competitors in Canicross has been increasing very significantly for several years.
The next Korea Championship event is scheduled on or around November 2nd. By that time, KFSS plans to generate new racing classes in order to gather more competitors and spectators. One of the new events is called "Cani-Walking," which is basically similar to Canicross. However, competitors do not run but walk. KFSS will introduce Cani-Walking to induce more entrants by eliminating the entrance fee and also by providing competitors with a jouring belt and other pet accessory for free.
KFSS's target is to invite is about 1,000 people and, of course, the dryland race will be held as usual with Cani-Walking as special event. |
