Iditarod 2001 - Tales from the Trail

March 16, 2001

I couldn’t sleep:

I told you not to pay any attention to Karen’s schedule.  It looks like Karen pulled a fast one on those old Shaktoolik Gremlins.  Judging by her run time from Unalakleet to Shaktoolik she decided to camp on the trail then blow through Shaktoolik stopping only long enough to restock her sled with supplies.  Maybe she’ll continue the schedule once she hits Koyuk? Maybe she’ll just keep running until she hits Nome? All I know is that in a few hours I’ll be in Nome and for the first time this winter Karen will finally be running towards me instead of away from me.

Bye for good this time.

The next clicking you hear will be from Karen...
