Well that was interesting. My first man & dog race was on Sunday and we did ok. Our finish time for the 5k was 19:46 and we finished 6th in our class. Quite pleased with the time but was surprised by the level of competition; much stronger than I thought it would be with the winner posting a 16:47 - good with or without dog!
So Rusty seemed to enjoy it. Off like a lunatic at the start but needs to pace himself as he was dragging his weary paws toward the end. We were only overtaken once on the two lap course, it was like being passed by a dog/man express train! We passed quite a few competitors and it was funny to watch the dogs exchange glances on the way past 'ha, faster than you and you're a husky!'
