Busers Lead Narrows by the Hour

Aliy Zirkle is a mere 14 miles behind Martin Buser....and she has Mitch Seavey on her tail 3 miles behind her. Burmeister and Berkowitz are 6 miles behind Aliy.....and Berkowitz is running a full compliment of 16 dogs! This is an incredible and critical part of the race.....Buser probably has no idea of how the hounds are closing in. He must feel his team slowing down.....his big risk in the beginning may be taking its toll. Buser, Aliy and Mitch all have 13 dogs.....Burmeister has 15 and Berkowitz is running with 16... a testament to his excellent dog care!
