🐾 Paw & Grit: Ultimutt Training Meetup
Details
Because training should be as joyful as race day
Join us for a light-hearted, tail-wagging training series leading up to the Ultimutt Race on April 12 in Greenville, SC! Whether you're running, walking, or trotting beside your pup, this biweekly Sunday meetup is designed to help both humans and dogs build confidence, endurance, and connection—without taking ourselves too seriously.
### ✨ What to Expect
We’ll begin each session with a 6-minute grounding meditation to calm our minds and center our bond with our dogs. Think deep breaths, paws on the earth, and the simple joy of being outside together.
Then we’ll ease into:
- Gentle warm-up walks
- Playful agility & leash work
- Trail runs or power walks (we’ll build distance gradually)
- Confidence-boosting obstacle play
- Social time for dogs and humans 🐶 Who’s Welcome
All friendly dogs and their human teammates—runners, walkers, hikers, beginners, and seasoned adventure buddies. No race experience required. (Puppies must be fully vaccinated.)
### 🥾 What to Bring
- Water & collapsible bowl
- Leash (no retractables, please)
- High-value treats
- A sense of humor and a love for mud
This isn’t just training—it’s community. By April, we’ll be more than ready for race day… and probably have a lot of muddy paw prints on our hearts. And if you don't want to register for the event and just want to come out for the fun and exercise, please do!!
