Mike Williams Jr. into McGrath – Aaron Wins Halfway Prize!

mike

This Morning in Nikolai

At this hour Mike Jr. is into the McGrath Checkpoint. His time is going to be pretty close to other musher’s across the run in about 5 hours 30 minutes or so.

I’m expecting a break here and then probably on to Takotna and Ophir. With his 24 complete, he will begin to revert to a schedule that works well for his Team. It could be a 6/4 or something similar. The runs tonight are fairly long as he turns North for Ruby this evening with the Ophir to Cripple run the second longest of the race.

Speaking of LONG! There is talk of Sonny Lindner possibly heading all the way to Ruby for his 24 hour break. That would be a pretty long run, but the weather and trail are exceptional. Stay tuned- They are all keeping us guessing!

Congratulations to our Host Aaron Burmeister for winning the half way prize in Cripple! Go Aaron!!

I’ll update weather shortly as we get new forecasts at 4pm.

Good Job Qam!
