I'm still trying to picture a six-legged race with reindeer. I can imagine a five-legged or a seven-legged arrangement, just can't figure out how to race with six. Please clarify so Rudolph can join in this game.
Well...two reindeer, side-by-side, inner front legs joined and inner back legs joined. That gives two outer front legs, two outer back legs, joined inner front legs and joined back legs (2+2+1+1=6).
Think of a three-legged race for people, and you’ll be on the right track.
