I worked on "Iron Will" a Disney movie about dog sledding and think it is cool to watch the teams. I know there aren't usually places to watch on the trail, unless it has check points.

I didn't finish very well in the standings, but that doesn't really matter because the dogs ran GREAT. We passed 3 or 4 other teams. Our time was way off what the winners did it in, but that's what you get when you step out of the rec circuit and run with people who are in dogs for money. We did 6.6 miles in 42 mins on Saturday and 43 on Sunday. The winner of the class did it in 33 and 28 I was really happy with how well we ran though. They didn't slow down once. Though my female up front is coming into season....so she refused to lead on Sunday....but the male up front was wonderful and ran single perfectly. It was all of 15 degrees on Sunday and they started to get pretty hot!

Give the dates and I will see if I can make it to Clare. To bad there isn't one downstate :-( - all the UADers could come and root for you.
Re: Race at Kalkaska- pics
And if you're interested, this weekend I'm doing a demo in Rochester Hills (Detroit give or take I've been told) for a winter carnival. I'll be giving rides all day Saturday so if you know anyone who wants to take a spin, point them in my direction! Maybe I'll post my demo schedule in another thread so that people can see it and decide if they want to stop by......

Anyway, sending you a PM about another sport event and a question about some of the upcoming MUSH events.

Kel, yes, Nova was a little jerk and his obsessive BC personality told him that he simple could not run on the left side. I had two options, switch him or let June-o eat him (he was driving her CRAZY....all the pushing and barking ). June was fond of door number two....I could picture pulling back into the camp with an empty collar hanging on the neckline.
