The Great Race
…is goin' on right now. 1,100 miles across Alaska, from Anchorage to Nome commemoratin' this event.
You can follow the progress at the official site. As of yesterday, the leader was headed out of Cripple while most of those behind him were just comin' in.
Look at that map and imagine youself, a sled, fifteen dogs, and a thousand miles of frozen, unforgivin' landscape.
If I were only a little bigger—and younger…
[Who are you kiddin', bucko? You wait until I sweep the steps before you'll go out after a snow flurry!—AHM]
Okay, okay. But I sure do salute those special dogs who love to run.
