The Rehab Rover Canicross and Trail Race, powered by Veterinary Rehabilitation Services of Virginia and Harness Canicular LLC, presents the 3rd Annual Canicross race in the Commonwealth of Virginia! The Veterinary Rehabilitation Services of Virginia campus is a working equine rehabilitation facility that provides a peaceful environment for running, walking, or hiking. The 10k and 5k courses are classified as technical trail running races. Participants should be prepared for uneven terrain, elevation changes, and natural features, including roots, rocks, mowed fields, shallow water crossings or bridges, and narrow paths. There will be 3 water stations along the course. NEW in 2026: We have added a 1.25-mile "Bel-Mutt Stakes." This will be a fast, flat course for those who do not want to run a 5k, have a young dog, or just prefer to sprint! Whether you are joining us for fun or competing for a top spot on the podium, your bond with your dog will be strengthened as you navigate the trail
