On the main page of BBC news here in England. Considering that it appears in Wese's writing and is a USA race in a minority sport I found it interesting to see it mentioned here. Ian

The BBC is great at providing coverage on minuscule parts and activities.I'd like to think they have a group looking for "oddball" or obscure stuff for reportage. This sort of thing is what makes "local" news such a great resource. News outlets such as the Record-Hearald?? that Wes waa publisher and editor. I think it's the "groups" you read. Everyone has heard of the the Iditarod and Yokon Quest and the Beargrease. There are a number of smaller, more local events such as the Copperdog held run out of Calumet, MI There's even a Wikipedia page of sled dog races! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sled_dog_racesOnly 13 days until the start of the 2023 Iditarod!
