Iditarod 2015 – Day 9
The Seaveys are battling it out for the lead with a man heading home. Being from Nome, Aaron’s team know by now they are heading home. Dallas is staying ahead by reducing rest time.
Two more scratches, Jan Stevens scratched at Huslia, and Katherine Keith at Unalakleet. Cindy Abbot now has the Red Lantern and is on the trail to Koyukuk. Cindy raced over 600 miles with a broken pelvis in her first attempt, so she’s not apt to give up.
Dallas has more than a 4 hour lead over his Dad and Aaron.

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day
Éireann go Brách!
Well everyone agrees that he died on March 17th, but the year is subject to debate. This is his feast day on the Catholic calendar. Enjoy as you are wont.
Wikipedia has more on Saint Patrick’s Day, if you need more.
