Zirkle and Seavey 1 mile Apart - Ramey Smyth Comes Outta Nowhere

Aily, as predicted, stays at Elim exactly 2 hours....Dallas's also has rested some, but we dont know exactly when on the sea ice he bootied up, because his GPS Tracker signal was hidden for a bit....but now we have them 1 mile apart. Ramey Smyth blew through Elim now too, and appears to be parked on the sea ice for a rest about 8 miles back. Ramey is a power house, and is known to excel on this last part of the race at blistering fast speeds. He may challenge them both once he gets 8 hrs rest under his belt! Aaron Burmiester, 2 miles behind Ramey, has also gone through Elim and is now also on his way to White Mountain.

Remember...White Mountain is where they all must stop for an 8 hour rest. The order the file in, is the order they file out to Nome. Its important to push as hard as you can on this 47 mile leg into White Mountain to better your chances to catch the leader into Nome.

This rae is amazing!
