I sent in my bio info along with photo to the Quest office today. I will be dropping my entry off tomorrow after work. I'm halfway to my goal now, but have a few folks who have said they also wish to sponsor me. So, while I'm not quite there to the total amount I need, there are still a few days left to fundraise. I have total faith that we'll make our goal, though it means we'll be up all night on Friday packing the drop bags! Ha ha ha!
On training news, Manny took the team out for a nice run yesterday up the Fireline trail. They did very well, though I guess Just decided to be bull-headed about taking a Haw (that's left in mushing talk), which meant Manny had to go up to pull Just to the Left turn he wanted to make. I had to laugh, as Just has been doing this to me; but, had yet to do it to Manny. They finally went the way Manny wanted them to...but I guess it took 4 or 5 tries to get it through Just's head. The run went well, with the team doing over 20 miles. He said the dogs came in looking real good. Tomorrow, he'll be going out on a 40 miler in the hills. Our dogs are already capable of longer runs, so to keep from burning them out, yet keep them in shape, we alternate short runs with longer runs. This weekend, I plan to do an 80 mile run, then back to 20s-40s until race time.
I could still use more support in the way of funds, so if you wish to contribute, please contact me via email, or you can even donate right online through Paypal! Just click on the donation button. Every little bit helps, from $5 up to $100 and we truly appreciate all the help thrown our way. Cheers, All!
