Triple Crown For Junior Races?
This upcoming mushing season, Jenny is planning on running the Jr. John Beargrease, the Jr. Race to the Sky, and the Jr. Iditarod
This mushing season is sure to be full of excitement for Jenny and her team of faithful pups! After last season's Jr. Race to the Sky victory (and Best Cared for Team Award) and Rookie of the Year, 5th place finish in the Jr. Iditarod, the team and Jenny are planning on running both the Jr. Race to the Sky and Jr. Iditarod again IN ADDITION TO the Jr. Beargrease! The Jr. Race to the Sky, in the mountains of Montana, and the Jr. Beargrease, in the Minnesotan hills, are both 100 mile, 8-dog races. The Jr. Iditarod, in Alaska's rugged terrain, is a 160 mile, 10-dog race.
If you want to find out more how you can help, please email Jenny. Thank you!!

Purchase a "No Moose" button to help Jenny and her team get to the Jr. RTTS, Jr. Beargrease, and Jr. Iditarod! Second to motor vehicles, the moose is the most dangerous thing a team and their musher can encounter on the trail. The "No Moose" button protected the teams in the 2000 Iditarod, and they are now back!

2010-2011 Racing Season
In the 2010-2011 racing season, my dogs from the "Bush Plane Litter" and "Egyptian Litter" all had a year of training and racing under their belts and became my "veteran dogs". It was Emmett, Jasper, Alice, Bella, and Kaycee's first year of racing and training, but they did really well and were even better than the "veteran dogs"! We ran the Rodeo Run in West Yellowstone, MT and received 6th place. In the Green River Classic in Pinedale, WY, we received 10th place. In the Flathead Sled Dog Days in Olney, MT, we received 6th place and the Sportsmanship Award. In the Snow Dog Super Mush in Conconully, WA, we received 2nd place only minutes behind the 1st place team. In the Cascade Quest in Leavenworth, WA, we received another very close 2nd place and the Best Cared For Team Award. In the Jr. Race to the Sky in Lincoln, MT, we received 1st place and the Best Cared for Team Award. In our last race of the season, the Jr. Iditarod in Alaska, we received 5th place and the Rookie of the Year Award. It was a very successful season, and it was great to see the puppies of the team do so well! It is also great to know that they will be even better next year!
2009-2010 Racing Season
My dogs and I ran 566 miles of races and 1,800 miles of training runs in the 2009/2010 season. It was my dogs' first "real" year of training and racing, and they just turned 2 near the end of the season. We ran 160 continuous miles in the Red River Sled Dog Derby, 100 continuous miles in the Junior Race Sky, 100 miles in the American Dog Derby, and 40 miles in the Flathead Sled Dog Days Race. In the Junior Race to the Sky and Flathead race, I received Best Cared For Team Award. In The Red River race, we received Most Inspirational Award (sportsmanship award). We also ran 56 miles in the Green River Classic, 70 miles in the Snow Dog Super Mush, and 40 miles in the West Yellowstone Classic. I finished every race I entered, and my dogs were amazing, as always :).
"My dogs are first and foremost family."—Jenny
"I have known Jenny Greger her whole life. I have watched her grow as a musher and as a lady. I have been a race marshal for Race To The Sky for 11 years and have been running dogs for over 40 years. Jenny's Father is an extremely experienced musher and Jenny is following in his foot steps by caring for, training, and racing her own team. She is an experienced musher who knows her dogs and manages her team better than many 'adults'" - Race To The Sky Race Marshall
