Wait, did these sheep sign up through the proper channels?

How did they get on the trail exactly? Whose sheep are these? Is Munich controlled by roving herds of sheep? We have so many questions.

Whatever the case may be, we sure are glad it happened, and we definitely think that sheep, or any livestock for that matter, should be allowed and encouraged to race in future marathons.
