We get it televised but I couldn't find a way to link. Downtown is very crowded today, think I'll stay home.

I'll bet it's crowded! Big event!

What time do the teams leave?

All 67 teams are out on the trail now. They'll run to check point #1 in Eagle River about eleven miles and then load up to drive out to Wasilla where the race will resume tomorrow.

Wow. That's a lot of prize money. The first few all get about the same amount. Strange. =>}

But the winner gets a new Dodge Truck too. Every one that finishes gets paid something.

I like it that everyone gets something. =>}
