The adult canicross run was 1.7 miles, and Verde, a young Alaskan husky, pulled hard the whole way. “It’s a herky-jerky run, the dog bounding ahead, the line pulling at your back,” said Joshua Tesch, Verde’s 29-year-old owner and teammate from Superior, Wis. “The dog pulls you through the air during each stride.”

Mr. Tesch said he runs a mile 30 to 40 seconds faster when hooked up to his dog, averaging a five-minute-mile pace on trail.
