23 Miles, 9.5 hours, (8.5 hours moving, 1 hr worth of breaks) (took an 'adventure' detour from the posted routed, so clocked 3-4 extra miles from the advertised 19-20).

Glad to be done with 4.5 hour "training" hikes every other weekend, very time consuming. The training was for me, she was fine, and PULLED me the entire 23 miles.

We're ready now to make our attempt at the 4mile Obstacle course in Alabama this October (but who knows, i don't really know what I am getting myself into)

whether you complete in 1 hour (top times) or over 2 hours (based on 2025 results nearly 50% of particpants are 2 hours or more), come and join the Brittany team; 'Its Brittany Bitch'. I don't get to see other Brittanys very often, I'd love to see a handful of Brittanys together at the start line. Let me know and I can DM you the team password for when you register. (registering on a team does not exclude competing in all the normal individual categories).

Any interest in a 'Brittany' team? replies here or DMs, let me know

October 17/18 Anniston, AL

There's been a few posts on here of others doing this event. I don't do conformation or have a brittany club close, so I tend to only see other Brittany's sporadically at hunt tests or other k9sport event or the ultra-rare sighting in public. I figured a group of Brittany's together (at least off the start line) would be neat.

I'm registering within the next week or so . . . I can share team info after I register (I believe its a team name and password). Team is created by first registrant and others join when they register. My understanding is that the only real difference is that Teams are released at the start line together, with no obligation to stay togther. Teams are competing in the Team category (average of top 4 finishers) AS WELL AS each individual competing in their individual categories. I saw Spring results with team members over an hour apart in finish time, so no obligation/expectation to stay together.

My personal goal/intention is fun, not necessarily to attempt any placements or high level competitivness. Its been on my radar for a little while and the most recent post here reminded me . . . It looks like a blast and its always fun to see other brittanys around.

Little man’s happy.

Weekend of lots of waiting at an AKC scent trial. I owe her some off leash fun this week.
