Our Hobbies

Races

When the winter season draws to an end, we've sometimes tested our best dogs in local mid-distance races. We're not serious racers, but it's a good place to practice some of the dogs' other skills. We took part take in the Gold Rush Run for 5 years from 2015-2019 and again in 2021, and the Bergebylopet N70 once in 2017.

2015: 90 km (2 x 45) GRR, 8th place

2016: 80 km (2 x 40) GRR, 16th place

2017: 160 km BBL N70, 7th place, & 140 km (2 x 70) GRR, 9th place

2018: 140 km (2 x 70) GRR, 14th place

2019: 90 km (2 x 45) GRR, 22nd place

2020: all races cancelled due to covid-19

2021: 90 km (2 x 45) GRR, 

For the following two years we were very busy with sledding tours and sadly these GRR races are no longer organised, so we'll have to look for another venue. 

The next possible calendar opening for us would be in spring 2025. Now we just need to work on getting the dogs trained up again... :)
