Yukon Quest Alaska officials reversed course this weekend. A race marshal had withdrawn musher Lauro Eklund from the 550-mile competition for going too slow.
The 2023 Yukon Quest Alaska officially concluded on Sunday with an awards banquet, and the 550-race sportsmanship award went to Lauro Eklund, a 26-year-old rookie musher from Fairbanks who was withdrawn from the race last week.
The move resulted in backlash from fans and mushers, and Eklund and several other mushers, including Quest 550Brent Sass, filed appeals, pointing out that Eklund’s pace was on track with past rookie teams, and that he was given no warning he was at risk of being withdrawn.
