Voice of the Quakers Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Better at Greco than at field dressing a moose in a hurry, apparently. Pretty sure his title was at the Cadet level. Dallas Seavey almost took a different path in the sports world. He was the first Alaskan to win a USA national wrestling championship when he took the 125-pound Greco-Roman title in 2003 and trained for a year at the U.S. Olympic Training Center before concussions led him to back to mushing. https://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/39719071/dallas-seavey-breaks-record-sixth-iditarod-victory Dan McDonald, Penn '93 danmc167@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SocraTease Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I think the dogs probably deserve the medals as well as a good meal and a long rest since they are the real athletes. Kind of like horse racing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mspart Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I'm sure the dogs are well taken care of. We had a kid that lived with us a long time ago. He is now a Dr in Anchorage. He has done the Iditarod a few times and this year his son did it for his first time. What a grind. I think the dogs love it. I don't think I'd like it. I hate the cold and I hate sleep deprivation. Much more suited to wrestling!! mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgaveMaria Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Moose are very dangerous animals. Can walk completely silent through forest floor covered with dry leaves in the fall. You never know what sets one off. They can run faster than you and will track you during an attack. Climbing a tree isn't even a defense as they might sit below and bash into the tree over and over trying to knock you out of it. Big, fast, mean and the meat makes great pepperoni. ” Never attribute to inspiration that which can be adequately explained by delusion”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
