20 teams total.  Fast trail, very windy.  Dogs stamina was great but speed was down.  Still happy with their overall performance.  Due to the trail being fast we mixed the A & B teams.

Warm, near 40 with some rain.  Overall teams ran well.  Wired's first race in lead, needs to work on turns but overall nice!  We had some dogs off the team so Kelly borrowed Cinder & Streak from Gail.

Temps from 15-40, sunny, trails hard & fast.  Team was 'flat', switched dogs around 5 times.  Wired lead some, Sirius & Pax lead at the end, Paxson was the best leader.  Great trail and fun, but not the performance I know my team can give.
