Championships in speed and acrobatics involving all Members of the [[Council of the Wing-Ang Ri]] are held once a year in the main arena.  Since an element of involuntary participation is involved in Regional races and the Pageant Race wise dragons train all year.

==='''Exercise and Feeding'''===
 
Another element of training is that they need exercise and to eat. Most dragons need a sheep a week at least for substenincce. One every third day is better. Most like one a day or more.  Most dragons support Shepards and farmers who stake out their meals.  Some hire hunters to stalk game then mark them with spells for them to get exercise hunting them.
 
 
Many strategies have been used. Hunting free range livestock in the past nearly got them hunted to extinction.    So did hunting each other.  Demanding virgin girl sacrifices seemed to attract terribly efficient dragonslayers.
 
 
So the Dragon Races developed.

==Local==
Local races are mostly practice flights but many cities vie to sponsor space and prizes even for these practice flights. City and Country faires, anniversaries, weddings are happy for the spectacle of drag flights to be added to their events.

These are voluntary flights but are still considered training flights. There is considerable rivalry and people of the general public eagerly watch them.  Many dragons have huge followings. A fan base often means fans donate sheep or cows to them for snacking on at home.

== Regional Race==
Regional flights follow Pendant rules picking 3 involuntary flights. In the regionals a chosen dragon may decline flying but it means for the next year they remove themselves from public life. They can't vote in public dragon matters, they can not hold office, sponsor others for any advancement or Scholarships, officiate at cultural or religious services.

The two losers have their tails amputated and ceremonial eaten that evening at the Victory Dinner. They must with draw from public life till their tails grow back. With magic no less the two years.  Sometimes as much as twenty. Or up to centuries if someone magically hinders healing.
 
  
Also...all those decisions that come to the consuls, each has a few small fees. A silver here, a gold there, maybe only a copper. But it builds up.  Dragons like treasure. So.....
