Dog Runs Half Marathon, Comes In Seventh


Story out of Elkmont, Alabama:

A dog that left her Alabama home for a walk has wound up running in a local half-marathon – which she ended up finishing in an impressive seventh place.

Two-year-old Ludivane, a bloodhound from Elkmont, a town with a population of only about 400, had been let out for a stroll by her owner, April Hamlin, when she came across the Trackless Train Trek Half Marathon.

Always up for a run, the puppy committed to the endurance challenge – and finished the 21km course in just over an hour and 30 minutes.

The Elkmont Half Marathon honoured the canine’s participation and awarded her with a medal.

Her owner remained oblivious to her canine’s competitive spirit, and said she only became aware of the epic run when friends started sending her photos of Ludo at the finish line. Cont.
