Race Day 9 – Iditarod
Lance is still in Unalakleet and Mitch Seavey (21) and Hugh Neff (55) showed up at 12:20 AM CDT, 6 hours after Lance.
They are showing that Kurt Reich (59)R scratched in Ophir, but they haven’t released any other information. He left earlier and must have come back.
Harry T Alexie (67)R and Karin Hendrickson (29)R have been racing all day against each other, but Harry is down to 12 dogs while Karin still has 14. Chad Lindner (26)R was in the mix for a while, but he has dropped back this evening. There are a lot of races within the race that can be more interesting that the main event.
The “red lantern” is in Iditarod, but there is no obvious holder and the last group have also been racing with each other.
