Anna ran a great race in this year's Sheep Mountain 150. Due to some scheduling conflicts, she was a late entrant to the race and thus started in the back of the pack with bib number 47. She encountered a very well-used trail given her position, but the weather was cooperative the first day. She did have an issue with one dog suffering reoccurring nose bleeds. A race vet confirmed the bleeds were not cause for concern and were likely stemming from a simple scratch that couldn't heal under the exertion of racing. So Anna took advantage of this race's rules and swapped that dog for another.
The second day of racing brought some menacing weather and, near the finish line, an encounter with a musher of highly questionable sportsmanship. But Anna was able to keep her team in check and successfully cross the finish line with total race time of 31 hours 8 minutes. She had 12 dogs in harness and placed 32nd. She was also the recipient of the Veterinary Care Award!
