hi jeanie B,

well......we are hoping to get out for next years race....and..er....i think i m gonna use that as a fact finding trip as well...ummm....it would be a dream come true to run to nome, it has to be my once in a lifetime alltogether dream come true to run a team in the iditarod....and at the moment im trying to get my head around how i could do it, fianances etc etc etc...and toying with the idea of doing it in say 5 years or at least have plans for MAYBE!!! doing it by then, im 40 in 5 years so it would kinda be a sort of thing to mark the occasion with...i think!

were coming to alaska for the race next year if my house sale goes through, fingers crossed its going to go its under offer at the moment... i know that if i come to the race im gonna want to do it, but knowing me if i do i wouldnt want to just finish the race id want to go for it and do the best i could and finish as high up as i can...and be competitive. im too competitive in my sports to not just run it, and thats the problem !

ive competed to a high level in climbing, white water kayak and canoe racing, mushing, and surfing and have gone for it big time in each, so i know that id want to go for it big time and go hard if i did it, and its training myself not to so as i wouldnt end up scratching thats the hard bit hahaha

but if i do end up doing it then i would love the iditabuddies there to handle for me and join in the excitment!

so in 5 years I'll only be 71, if I can't hold a dog by then at least I could whooooohooooooo and yippppeeeee for the team-whatever their name is by then

All right, Tangles! We can all save our pennies for 5 years! I seriously doubt I will make it back next year. I'll see how much I have to spend this year, first. If you get to run the Iditarod, I'll walk there!!!

Mush on,
JeanieB

[tanglefoot]

was it herbie N or someone else who was running the irod in their late 70's?

[Polaris]

You little tinker you, ive just got a tear in my eye from that report. We do race hard, we train hard but we do look out for each other. Dizzy does like the cold but me being a mincy Army boy, i dont. See you on the trail.

[Another UK Fan]

Polaris - who is Dizzy?

[MarinOhio]

OK Tangles, if I don't fall down and I don't step on any doggie toes, can I handle for you too? Let's see, that would be in 2013?? FDF, If we're too old to handle one dog, we could pair up and you could take the head of one dog and I could take it's butt. Would that work? What do you think, Mith?
