“We’re only halfway in the race, and tons can happen,” said musher Pete Kaiser.
Knik musher Hunter Keefe removes a booty from one of his dogs at the Ruby checkpoint in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog race on Friday, March 8, 2024.
The Bethel musher said he was looking forward to the Yukon — his team has a lot of experience on the Kuskokwim River back home — but he had added more rest to their schedule to keep the dogs strong for what’s to come. “But I’ve never had a team this fat and eating this well, so that’s really cool and I’m really happy about that, and when you’ve got an appetite like that you can do a little bit more,” he said. “We just want a little speed back.”
Seavey said he wasn’t seeing anything too problematic with the dogs, for example, none of their gaits looked off.
