From CJ: As many of you know, Karin is not racing this year because of her accident in November. However, her team are racing with Bryan Bearss, a musher Karin knew when she was a dog handler -- that is how she got into this crazy world of dog mushing.  Anyway, Bryan drew bib number 48.

As I am not in Alaska this year my sister is sending reports to Kathy Mitchell who shall relay them on to the rest of you.  If you want other news about the race a good source of info is www.adn.com.

Enjoy,

CJ
