Working on the trails

The last and probably also coming week main focus has been on preparations for Troms Quest race next weekend. With a few exceptions the trail is now marked and a few teams has tried out the trail and the response is positive. If the trail conditions stay like it is now, my guess is winning times around 10 to 11 hours plus the rest time next week...

Changing weather

Focus the last week has been planning our upcoming sleddog race, Troms Quest, but it is difficult to get going with trail braking when weather is changeing all the time. Arriving home from christmas holiday in Sweden the 29.dec we had zero snow and green fields, one week later we where swimming around in 1m of soft snow, and today it is warm and raining again... To morrow we go out to start the trail braking, and hopefully the conditions will stabilize and give us some good weeks of training and racing.  

On Troms Quest I will work as race leader, so I don´t get the chance to race my self. Aslak will take care of racing the adults on the 160 km while Our Australian Friend Donald McIntyre will race the youngsters on 55 km.
