Iditarod Update

No one has come in yet, but they are expected to be here tomorrow afternoon or evening.  Right now Aliy Zirkle is chasing Mitch Seavey down and is following 2 miles behind him coming out of Elim.  There's a bunch of people resting in Elim and even more in between Koyuk and Elim.  Their next stop will (probably) be White Mountain where they have to take a mandatory 8 hour rest.  White Mountain is just 77 miles away from Nome.

Last year Aliy came in second place in the Iditarod!  She is one of the (close to 2 dozen) mushers that I am rooting for!  Go Aliy Go!

Also saw that this was one of her dogs (sound like anyone you know?):
