If it gets to the point that I don't feel that electricity when the dogs take off, I'll quit. |
In the older days when we ran the 500-mile race, we started in Helena and ran to Park Lake before doing the restart in Lincoln. That wasn't a great trail for dogs. It was too hard. |

The race owes its beginning to Camp Rimini and the sled dog training that went on there in World War II. I'm excited about it. I think this race is going to be a really good one. |
