As far as athletic prowess goes, not a single team was even close to us by the end. The last team simply left the bar early. Wow, there's some imagination. Just don't participate in a mandatory stop. That aside I thought you all had the best antics. It was our first time and we actually believed it was an athletic competition rather than a beer fest. We'll be better prepared for next year.

Pleasure meeting you during the race and nice coverage of it. Good choice on teams to cover, even if they were athletically the most challenging. I finally got mine up (third project of the week, ouch. http://joshhawkins.com/stories/pj/chiditarod/) I look forward to running into you again. And if you're working for the Medill news service I'm sure I'll see your work in our paper at some point. Thanks for the hook up Matt. Pleasure meeting you during the race and nice coverage of it.
