Malo Starts Strong In Pedigree Stage Stop Race

After the first two legs of the Pedigree Stage Stop Race, Anny Malo appears intent on defending her 2019 championship. Malo turned in a blistering run on the opening day in Alpine, covering the 28-mile course along the Greys River with an astonishing 16.2 mph average. She was followed by Lina Streeper and Jeff Conn. Sunday’s times in Pinedale were a bit slower due to headwinds and more rolling terrain. But it was an identical 1-2-3 finish for Malo, Streeper, and Conn. Overall, Malo now holds a nearly 4-minute lead over 2nd place Streeper. Conn is within striking distance at 3rd. Rachel Courtney, Alix Crittenden and Bruce Magnuson round out the top 6 mushers so far. The teams will run Monday in Kemmerer where conditions are expected to be snowy and cold—just how the dogs like it.
