Craig Medred on musher's weight (2003)

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

Found an interesting article from 2003, where ADN-columnist Medred analyze the pros and cons of body weight:

So; why not include weight info in the musher's bio?

The first time Harald Tunheim raced the Iditarod (ROTY '99) he lost a total of 15kg during the race - some 35 pounds :o Good for his dogs, though :)
