The team has left Elim!

Well, the team has left Elim just before 8pm. Based on the frontrunners run times, I am predicting Warren will arrive in White Mountain after about a 7 hour run, putting him in at 3am Thursday. At White Mountain he will take his mandatory 8 hour layover thus he will be heading out to Nome around 11am. Typically the run to Nome is about 10 -11 hours. Let's all hope for a cool day tomorrow as the team will be running in the heat of the day. So, expecting the team into Nome late tomorrow evening. Hopefuly they will show their arrival on the Insider for all of you to see. I am sure once Warren has some rest he will fill us all in about the run. He left Elim with all 14 dogs. I will update after I talk to him. 
I spent the afternoon cleaning out the trailer and the dogs boxes as the kids sledded with our friends Tom and Tammy Thurston's daughters.
Have a great evening. Kate
