DogFit, the UK’s leading canicross brand, is celebrating 10 years of empowering people and their dogs to get fitter, healthier, and happier together. And local DogFit Trainer Trainer Sara-Jane is helping people in Shropshire discover the benefits of this incredible sport.

“I love seeing the transformation in people and their dogs—from nervous beginners to confident canicrossers,” says Sara-Jane, a certified DogFit Trainer based in Ludlow, Shropshire. “It’s about so much more than fitness—it’s friendship, fresh air, and freedom.”

A Decade of Impact – Now in Shropshire

DogFit’s national movement has:

- Helped rescue and anxious dogs thrive through structured, supported running

- Supported people with anxiety, depression and low confidence through mental health–friendly programmes

- Built a nationwide network of DogFit Trainers, including Sara-Jane Ladums, offering local classes and coaching

In Shropshire, Sara-Jane runs:

- Group canicross classes and community runs

- Tailored Beginner to 5K programmes

- 1:1 coaching for dogs and humans needing extra support

- Intro sessions for those new to running or nervous about starting

Get Involved – Locally and Nationally

DogFit’s 10-year anniversary is a chance for more people to get involved. In Shropshire, residents can:
