Ramey Going to TRY to Catch Aliy!

Its going to be VERY close....Ramey even predicts it will be "by minutes" that he either catches Aliy or comes into Nome right on the heels of her sled runners. Both Aliy and Ramey concede that Dallas is going to win this...but the race for second is definitely ON. Aliy will start out around 1:25 EST, and Ramey about 52 minutes later. I will be literally glued to the GPS tracker as these two set out for Nome this afternoon. I REALLY wanted Aliy to win this race, so now that the best she can do is second place, I start to turn my attention to the 2012 Iditarod Mug Board, and on my Office board I have Zirkle coming in 3rd....5 points for me if that happens! NOT that Im going to root for Ramey to pass her...but IF he is able to catch her, at least I can get some points on my board for her efforts!
