Wow! What a Race!

Who do you think is going to win? Mrs. B is cheering really hard for Aliy Zirkle. If you look at her time going into White Mountain, she is faster than Mitch Seavey. The Insider is saying it could be a photo finish. that is exciting. The Insider will have the finish live and then video of each musher finishing after that. Don't forget the race isn't finished until the last musher crosses under the Burled Arch.

The Mushers have to do a 8 hour rest in White Mountain so Mitch should be able to leave at 13:11 AKST, which would be 3 pm MST. Aily can leave 13 minutes later. They have about 77 miles to Nome and one more checkpoint. I am guessing the finish will be in the middle of the night.
