Dallas Seavey is chasing Iditarod leader Brent Sass up the coast. Seavey has some up-and-coming dogs in lead, including Pecos who gets distracted. “He’s just looking at the birds in the sky, just runs right off the end of the trail,” says Seavey.
Seavey has led out of the Unalakleet checkpoint during just one of his victories, in 2015. Compared to Seavey, Sass’ team has generally run at slower speeds and cut on some rest, something he’s said he trains his dogs for.
Seavey, meanwhile, said he’s added an hour of rest to his stops in the race’s first half to help his dogs recover from a stomach bug. The illness made them less voracious than usual, and gave them diarrhea. He’s also been letting some of them rest in his tow sled, but ended up dropping some of those dogs anyway after they got injured.
“He’s just looking at the birds in the sky, just runs right off the end of the trail,” said Seavey. “I’m like, ‘Dude, pay attention!”Dallas Seavey’s team arrives in Unalakleet around 1:20 a.m. on Sunday. “White Mountain is not the finish, the finish is the finish,” he said, referring to the checkpoint 77 miles from Nome where teams are required to rest for eight hours.
