Sorry for the lapse in IditaDack race coverage....I had some personal commitments and was away from the action for a while. As you probably already know....Dallas beat Mitch and Brent into White Mountain, and are presently heading down the last 72 miles to Nome. Dallas did drop 2 more dogs and is down to 7 team members....but that really isnt an issue...in fact a smaller Team at this juncture can be an asset if the winds are high.
Mitch left after his 8 hour rest at 10:27 PM (our time) with 10 dogs. Dallas is presently at mile 911 and his Dad Mitch is at mile 904.
Brent Sass will be next up....allowed to leave at 11:40 pm our time after serving his 8 hour rest. Aliy will leave at 3:45 am our time. She is solidly in 4th place with no real threat from Wade Marrs who is just getting into White Mountain now. Aliy has nearly a 3 hour lead over Wade.
Kaiser was on Marrs heals by coming into White Mountain just 21 minutes later. A real battle for the 5 - 10 slots will be fierce tomorrow up the coast!
