It was sunny but the nice cold wind did decrease temperature to 10-12 C but unfortunately in the last 20km the wind stopped to blow and the temperature jumped to 25 C . On the other hand the speed of 12km/h is not so much and the body of the dog is not getting so hot as in the sprint runs or sleddog runs (of course if you trained with your dog before).
Thanks a lor for your answer. I really appreciate it and I hope some new rules will be made about it. It's not safe to run (even at 12km/h) if the temperature rise too much.
