Topic: Iditarod

The Iditarod starts Saturday, who you got ? I think Jeff King or Lance Mackey stand the best chance.

When I did the Beargrease 500 mile race we had to carry a mail pouch.

Re: Iditarod

Thanks for the link sniff. I've always enjoyed watching. There is usually a recap show on one of the sports channels. I'll have to look for it. My parents had a friend in Alaska who named their dog mush smile       Cathy

Re: Iditarod

Thanks for the link. I've watched it on the tube in the past and enjoyed it. That ride along for donations looked pretty cool. I like to see the bond and teamwork between the musher and the dogs. Good stuff.

Re: Iditarod

Looks like slow going with the warm weather, teens and twenties is way to warm for the dogs.

Re: Iditarod

Thanks Jane. I went to the Iditarod site, but they wanted money sad  Once in a while we get an hour recap show, but I can't find it listed anywhere for now.  Cathy

Re: Iditarod

Thanks from me too Jane. I mirror Cathy's finding. I was looking for Sgt. Preston in the lineup but he must have been a dnf. wink
I used to watch it on tv and enjoy the race and the relationship of the mushers and dogs.
