Paws for a Cause Canicross & Trail Run/Walk for Charity 2026

Lace up your trail shoes and leash up your canine companion for the Paws for a Cause Canicross & Trail Run/Walk for Charity 2026, an inspiring event taking place on Saturday, October 17, 2026, in Denmark, WI. Held at Neshota Park, this race offers a unique opportunity for both solo runners and canicross participants to navigate the scenic beauty of wooded trails. Participants can choose from three accessible distances: 2.8 miles, 5.6 miles, or 8.4 miles, making it an ideal fall challenge for all fitness levels.

Beyond the picturesque course, this event is packed with a vibrant atmosphere. Runners and walkers can enjoy a costume contest, a "PAW-PARAZZI" red carpet photography station, local vendors, and food, with some mentions even including a campfire and s'mores. Typical race day conditions in mid-October bring crisp autumn air with highs around 56°F and lows around 39°F, and only a 13% chance of precipitation, ensuring a comfortable trail experience. Day-of check-in commences at 9:00 AM, with the canicross race kicking off at 10:30 AM and the solo trail run/walk following shortly after at 10:35 AM.

Every stride taken supports a vital mission, as all net proceeds benefit Crisis Cafe, a charity dedicated to assisting those in need in the Green Bay area. This event is a fantastic way to enjoy the outdoors, challenge yourself, and make a tangible difference in the community, whether you're running with your dog or enjoying the trails solo.
