Canicross and MS: More Than Just Running

Canicross and Multiple Sclerosis: How Running with Their Dogs Helped Cat Everard and Louise Cowling Take Back Control

In this inspiring episode of the Talk Canicross Podcast, we meet Cat Everard and Louise Cowling, two passionate Canicross runners living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

They share their very different journeys to diagnosis, how they discovered Canicross, and why running with their dogs has become such an important part of managing both their physical and mental wellbeing. From Couch to 5K to ultra marathons, this is an honest conversation about resilience, friendship, adapting to life's challenges, and the incredible bond we share with our dogs.

Whether you're living with MS, looking for motivation to get active, or simply love hearing inspiring stories from the Canicross community, this episode is full of encouragement and practical advice.
