2007 1st Place Apostle Island 8 Dog Pro

Two days at around 30 miles each. Race was shortened due to logging activity on part of the trail. There was a tremendous amount of on-by and head-on passing both days. We are extremely pleased with this team's performance and the pace they maintained for the shorter distance and obstacles. Turned out to be a great training run in preperation for the Midnight Run. Sharon said all the dogs were on. Strider and Elrond made their 07 season debut in lead running both days. Newcomers to the team Gimli and Logolas both shined. All dogs took in their water and feed after both runs. No injuries presented themselves. All the dogs were bootied.
... Theoden-2004 (M) (L)
Sharon said Theo chewed up the trail, especially the hills.
... Strider-2004 (M) (L)
Strider was a bit cautious on the first day in lead with all the head on and on by passing. Second day he didn't bat an eye. Great training.
... Elrond-2004 (M) (L)
Elrond showed a bit of caution on the first day with the head on and on-bye passing. On the second day he didn't bat an eye.
... Wooly-2002 (M) (L)
Sharon said Wooly was as solid as ever. Effortless gait and makes it look easy.
