Pete Kaiser and his team made it to Nome first!  And I was awake to see it!

The Iditarod goes on – 2 more mushers made it to Nome today: Jessie Royer at 9:30 am and Aliy Zirkle at 5:26 pm. We’ve seen two men and now two women! 36 more to go! I adore this race where men and women compete together on the same basis!
