Iditarod Update

"Twelve tough dogs and one irrepressible musher were Monday vying to do the impossible -- win the 1,000-mile Yukon Quest International Sled Race and 1,100-mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in the same year."

We're rooting for Lance Mackey - the musher trying to do the above. Jeff King and Martin Buser appear to be fading. King said it would be "magical" if Mackey wins. It appears to be a race now between Lance Mackey and Paul Gebhardt for the finish in Nome - maybe tonight.

Hi Sis,

My son asked me to click the adn link so he could see the race stats this morn. It doesn't work.

We tried www.adn.com/iditarod and that works.
