Dorothy Christian sen,; a seasoned dog musher, gave me the opportunity to enter one of the most unexpected dog races in my life. As I was watching, she camé up and asked if I would like to run her dogs in the 5. mile race. I looked at the gray, Siberian huskies and decided I would race them. The race was very exciting. The dogs were not too well trained and I almost had to lead them where I wanted them to go. It was work but fun. In spite of my team and stop ping to help another driver who was in trouble with her dogs, I came in 7th.
