How fast can a real reindeer pull a sled?

Depending on load factors, and ground conditions, maybe 45 MPH is possible for a short burst. Moose racing was/Is popular in the U.S.S.R. and Reindeer and Moose are crossed to improve their performance. This was a feature of the un-televised in the US l980 Winter Olympics. 2-Moose sleds were used, very skimpy with one driver.
