Musher Poem

October 25, 2011 by teamineka

My wife left this little poem for me one morning on the bathroom mirror. I am so grateful to have a wonderful gal like that in my corner. Thanks sweetie.

Man who loves the snow
Ultimate sensitivity to the world around him
Shear desire to be the best he can be
Heart as big as the tundra, just a lot warmer
Endurance, energy, excitement
Races to win, and races to be the best

Training Run: 9-27-11

September 28, 2011 by teamineka

Date: September 28, 2011

Distance: 5.73 miles

Total distance (season):  137.13 miles

Weather: 52 degrees

Equipment: ATV

Trail Conditions: dirt road, trails

Dog Positions: 12 dog team: Marble-Bird, Swidgeon-Joanie, Jewel-Jane, Alma, Magpie-Chickadee, Shifter-Dale

Music Choice: None

Notes:  Tried something new today. Hooked up Marble in single lead. We knew right off the bat it was a bad idea! She headed into every open driveway and chased after dogs in the neighbor’s yards. We moved Bird up with her and the run went very well. We worked on “line out” and exteneded stops today, up to 5 minutes at one point.
