  • Kuskokwim 300 UPDATE

    The latest standings in the Kusko show all 19 mushers through Aniak and turned around on their way back to Bethel.  All have completed their mandatory 6-hour rests.

    Out of the Tuluksak checkpoint, Martin Buser was 39 minutes ahead of Jeff King, and two hours and eighteen minutes ahead of Jon Little.  In fourth place, into Tuluksak a half hour after Little, was Martin’s son, Rohn Buser.

    Then, it’s:

    5. Ed Iten
    6. Hugh Neff
    7. Tollef Monson
    8. Lance Mackey
    9. Ramy Brooks
    10. Mike Williams, Jr.
    11. Aliy Zirkle
    12. Paul Gebhardt
    13. Andy Angstman
    14. Mike Williams, Sr.
    15. J.J. Wells
    16. Linwood Fiedler
    17. Gerald Riley
    18. Ben Bruce
    19. David Fitka

    If you don’t recognize some of those names, don’t feel bad.  I’m unfamiliar with five of them.  If you don’t recognize any of those names –sheesh!– where have you been keeping yourself?
