Not much happening on the trail. I miss them going over the passes as it seemed more of a challenge.
Everyone is mostly out of the first checkpoint NENANA. Next check is at MANLEY HOT SPRINGS
(heck, I'd stop go in the hot springs and then move on--maybe that's why I'm not a musher)
The top runners are into the next check at TANANA. Right now MARTIN BUSER is at mile 216 (thats the distance from Fairbanks) and he is RESTING at the moment. The Ceremonial start does not count for race miles. The start is from Fairbanks to Nome 975 miles--only 74 miles different from Willow to Nome 1,049 miles.
Our HEIDI SUTTER is moving up quickly. She is at mile 155 and is also RESTING.
Everyone is still running, no one has scratched.
