The Waggy Races Team

The Lisburn based Waggy Races team are Ruth, Neil and Samoyed Zola.

Neil is a former rugby player who has taken to running and fitness training to remain in some sort of respectable shape since injury ended his rugby playing days.

Ruth is a former track athlete from Enniskillen, who specialised in the 800m. Although it irks him a lot, she is a much better runner than Neil.

Zola is our beautiful Samoyed (Siberian sled dog) and in many ways the face of Waggy Races as she often gets recognised when we're out and about. She loves hiking in the Mournes and visiting the beaches of Co Down and the North Coast. Her favourite food is ice cream.

We have to be careful to avoid warm temperatures when we take her out for a run or a walk and make sure that she has plenty of shade and water (she drinks water directly from a bottle).
