I hate to do this to you…. but with King and Seavey getting into Cape Nome just a little bit ago (still minutes apart) I’ve got to get down to front street for the live KICY broadcast.
The good news is: Its being recorded….and the first 10 of you can listen online @ kicy.org.
I sure got spoilt on the IROD site…
It’s gotta be over. Nome’s webcam is aiming in the wrong direction to see any action. this is agony.
I saw that on the cam…..Hope some one says something…..Its like the Dark Ages LOL
Mitch Seavey First in Nome by 8 Min.
Jeff King Second
Mitch Seavey first into Nome by 8 min
Jeff King Second
WHOOO-HOOOO!!!!!!
WAY TO GO MITCH.
i WAS SO HOPING Mitch would catch King.
Now, what about the time differential ????
Hi Adam! I was wondering if you would be watching/listening. KNOM had Paul and Amy on the trail and reporting back with a satilite phone…good coverage. Hi to Therese
Betsy
I thought someone said Mitch had a dog in the bag….don’t that drop him?
so the old recordtime must have been broken by
about 13 hrs less . heads off Mitch and Jeff , what
a finish .congratulations . Lance , it’s not a shame
to become third , sometimes even anotherone wins. you’re still the GREATEST for me. congrats to you too .
hopefully everyone understood that little “heads off”
joke .ofcourse i meant hats off .
putting a dog in the bag isn’t a “drop” leaving him at a check point is. Some mushers will carry one to keep it fresh for the last few miles; however, I don’t know if that was the case.
I’m still confused about this time “to be made up” thing…does it mean time will be added??? With King and Seavey so close, could King win by seconds???? I hope Josh will( or someone) clear this up!!!
No King can’t. Seavey left four minutes behind him, so King would actually be adding time.
And, is there a web cam that anyone can see anything on??? Confused and in the Dark…in Idaho!! Ha-ha!!
Sorry didn’t mean he dropped a dog….someone said he had one in the bag…..and got a little confused on some wording in the rules…worked all day and up way to late , but had to see the first few in…..
Thanks cabin fever…I’m SO glad Seavey won…had hoped Mackey could pull it off…dawg gone it!!
I don;t know if Mackey will see this, but incase he does I just want you to know that our family and friends have watched you for the past 4 years and have the greatest respect for you. All twenty of us in Texas were pulling for you. We all stayed with you throughout the race , some of the twenty were together and the others . well, we were burning up the telephone lines and the internet . We were wanting this so badly for you, but it just wasn’t to be
We were happy that Mitch caught him,. If it couldn’t be Team Mackey .To all of us you are still ‘THE MAN”
We haven’t seen or read anything of Mackey entering Nome and his reaction, but I can tell you this, Lance was humble and shook the hands of Seavey, and even King. Thats just the person he is.
Something to say?
Okay, ALL 10 of you who are listening…PLEASE share any info!!!
