Pete and the Team have a tailgater! Jake Berkowitz just sits there behind them like a backseat driver. It’s not like a neck and neck race, but it may be a bit mentally challenging to have someone just “There” all the time. Lucky for Pete, this isn’t the first time he has had to battle someone just behind him. In Iditarod 2011, Ken Anderson, was behind him for nearly the last half of the race. More recently in the Paul Johnson Memorial 450, John Schandelmeier followed him aggressively into Nome.
The three teams, Kaiser, Berkowitz and Redington are within 500ft of each other. In terms of time, that is a virtual dead heat. Maybe 10 seconds behind is Berkowitz and another 20 seconds is Redington.
It’s got to be a bit tiring with teams so close, so Go Team Kaiser!! Battle ON!
