Fall training for 4 time Iditarod Champion Martin Buser

We don't have snow in South Central Alaska, and it's been a tad warmer than normal, and very rainy... but that doesn't stop Iditarod teams from gearing up for the race season. It's the number one question we get from tourists on the subject "How do they run without snow?" Well...

What mind can conceive, man can achieve!

How are the Seaveys doing?

Doing well, Dan Seavey finally got his book published and the first printing arrived this weekend so they're mailing out the books to all who ordered. Mitch and Conway have signed up for several races (Mitch of course is also signed up for the Iditarod) as has Dallas. We're even warmer than the area Martin Buser is in, so the dogs are busy pulling ATVs around the property (and having a grand time of it, crazy animals). I spent the weekend at their house in Sterling a week or so ago and I loved listening to the dogs howl after every run and meal... I was there for a wellness conference Mitch's wife hosted, but I was paying more attention to the mushing talk that Mitch was doing downstairs to some of the guest speakers. Much more interesting than healthy living stuff! LOL

Good to hear! Hope they have a great season.

Me too, wish I was going to be more a part of it, but it is what it is...
