todays racing
Hi everyone. Today Leanne raced again. She ran the four dog race. Did really good and held onto her second place finish. The six dog was good also and she held onto fourth place. The eight dog on the other hand was not good. She had dogs that would not go through the bridges again and she lost the team grabbed her sled as it was going by. The team was dragging her down the trail and she hit her head on a tree and into a snow fence. The trail helpers asked if she wanted to turn around and go back. She said no and finished the race with her eight dogs and got paid for her position which was seventh. I think she is okay but has some really bad swelling on her upper jaw down along her ear. It was not good and I was disappointed that she did not make it through her effort of dog racing with out mishap. This is common for Leanne and she retired long ago because of it. Thanks to her the young dogs got to run and she did excellent among the fasted teams in the world. We take tomorrow off and then leave for home on tuesday.
