Mushers Checkpoint

Hosts Aaron Peck and Dan Kirkup analyze Day 4 of the Iditarod. Teams arrived in Ruby, and the front pack moved to Galena. Jessie Homes pushes through Galena with a play for Kaltag, and the rest of the field will follow. The 24-hour rests have started, likely Drobny and Hall at Galena. Who will have the best strategy, and what should we expect the next day?

Hosts Aaron Peck and Dan Kirkup provide analysis on Day 3 of the Iditarod. As the teams got close to Tanana, the wind picked up and created a dust storm. Some teams escaped it's wrath, others were bogged down for a long time. Everyone made it to Tanana safely. Just three mushers went through Tanana with a three-run strategy to Ruby. Most mushers stopped in Tanana with a two-run strategy. Which one was best?

Hosts Aaron Peck and Dan Kirkup analyze Day 2 of the Iditarod. The discussion picks up where we left off last night, with all but 1 team resting. We saw a 2-run strategy and 3-run strategies going towards Tanana. We are starting to see the different packs emerge, those at the front pushing the pace, the next pack lying in wait for their opportunity, the middle pack getting a bit more rest, and a few towards the back. Please tune in for our analysis on teams going from Nenana to Tanana. 

Hosts Aaron Peck and Dan Kirkup provide analysis on Day 1 of the Iditarod. We discuss rest strategies, avoiding the heat of the day, and how to get the dogs setup on the run/rest/eat schedule. Some teams went through Nenana to rest, others rested before. How will each strategy work out?
