Iditarod Update 3-10-08
At just over 700 miles into the Iditarod, Lance Mackey is still out in front of Jeff King - by two mile, According to the GPS units, King is making 8 MPH and Mackey 6 mPH. Maybe Lances dogs are tiring, Mabey Mackey is just letting them work lightly.
Within 40 MIles of the leaders (according to the GPS units) are Kjetil Backen, Mitch Seavey, Ed Iten, Dee De Jonrowe, Jessie Royer and Jonh Baker - all familiar names to anyone that even casually follows the race (like me).
Several hundred miles to go yet though.

Finally, yesterday, the radio carried a piece about the race--and about the advantages/disadvantages of carrying a GPS. It's a good thing that you keep us posted! Thanks for another year of coverage.
