Merry Christmas!!!
We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Things have been wonderful here at Running Swift Kennel and we are truly blessed. The boys got their Christmas wishes in the gifts they received from "Santa." I got a new watch that the hubby said can be used out on the trail (a really nice Indiglo Marathon watch) along with several other wonderful gifts (jewelry, comfy slippers, canisters, etc.). The hubby got his Newcastle United Jersey that I had to send away to England for (my, that was a time getting that!), along with some other Newcastle United items, nice polar fleece pants for mushing, a new heavy flannel hoody, etc. We really made out well this year! We must have been pretty good for Santa to be so kind to us.
We got another Christmas present as we were opening gifts this morning. My biggest wish was for snow...and guess what! It's still coming down, though they are light flakes.
Yesterday, I took the main team out for a nice run and boy did they run strong! They were maintaining between 13-15mph throughout the run, though on hills (we have some doozies!), they did slow to 8-10mph. Can't say I blame them, since the atv is 650lbs, plus me...that's a hefty load for them. But, they did very nicely and came in looking good. Now that we are getting more snow, I think we'll be ok taking small teams out with the sled. I'm really looking forward to it after all of the time on the atv, that's for sure!!! I'll be busy running the dogs now that I have a few weeks off from school, so bear with me on updates and such.
Enjoy the holidays and spending time with loved ones! We hope your holidays are as joyous and blessed as ours.
