Dynasty Born! Congratulations to Dallas!

You can’t argue with success! The last three years the last names on the Finish Leaderboard have been 1. Seavey – 2. Zirkle. That is quite a record and one for both Kennels to be proud. Dallas wins his second Iditarod in 3 years broken up last year by his father Mitch. Aliy has been second all three years.

Dallas Seavey passed Aliy in Safety and didn’t know until the Finish that he had one the Roses in the 2014 Race.

Meanwhile, the leaderboard won’t have King on it after a impressive storm tore its way through causing most mushers in the Elim checkpoint to wait it out before continuing.

Our own Mike Williams Jr. though, is out of Elim, alone against the elements and just making his way onto what may be one of the biggest challenges of his mushing career. Mike and his Team were out of Elim at 46 minutes past midnight. Pete and Richie along with a slew of other mushers, including John Baker, are holed up in Elim waiting for the storm to play out a bit.

Good Luck Mike! Of all the mushers, Mike though, has trained in conditions nearer to what he will face– Ice – Wind – and More Ice.

Stay Tuned! Team Kaiser Pit Crew is headed for Nome this morning!
