Canicross is the sport of cross country trail running with dogs. Competitors run open-air courses over natural terrain such as dirt or grass. Dog and human run as a team, with the dog out front while the human gives directional signals.
During this informational meeting, participants will learn all about the sport of Canicross, as well as an overview of bikjoring, skijoring, dry land mushing and more. 10 working spots will learn the ins and outs of training for the train, and unlimited auditing (without dogs).
A little about Haley:
Haley Mayse, originally from Morristown, TN started her running career in high school with a series of half marathons and a full marathon, Haley showed early on that she was committed to pushing her limits. After graduating high school, she moved to Harrogate, TN, to pursue a Bachelor’s in Chemistry at Lincoln Memorial University. It was during college that she welcomed her first dog, a Siberian Husky mix named Loki, marking the beginning of her deep bond with dogs.
In 2019, Haley and her husband, Daniel, relocated to Cookeville, TN, for her graduate studies at Tennessee Tech. However, Haley’s true calling emerged as she realized her passion for working directly with dogs. This led her to leave graduate school and take a position at the Cookeville Putnam County Animal Shelter, where she could make a meaningful impact on the lives of animals.
Over the years, Haley and Daniel expanded their family with a diverse pack of dogs, including Maggie, Kira, Maikoh, Feyre, Ciri, Kyros, River, and Nia. Her love for dogs naturally extended into the world of dog sports. Since 2020, Haley has competed in various events, including scent work, fast cat, barn hunt, conformation, and agility with her huskies. In 2021, she discovered canicross and bikejoring, and her enthusiasm for these sports led her to participate in numerous races, such as the One World Canine Biathlon, Adventure Canine Challenge, Big Frog Trail Race, and several 5Ks, where she even earned placements.
In June 2024, Haley was honored to become a North American Canicross Ambassador, allowing her to share her passion for canicross and dryland mushing with the middle Tennessee community.
