CB300: Starting Numbers

Good luck continues to hold for your SP Kennel Teams as the mushers draw advantageous starting numbers.

Allen will start number 6, which means he will have few teams to have to pass early on and will have an additional 74 minutes rest at his 8-hour layover. Aliy will start five teams behind him at number 11, which means the handlers will have a comfortable 10 minute gap between their starts to help launch her team. Bridgett will start number 19, and summed up the mushers’ view of their starting numbers in the following text message to me: “All in the top half and spread out nicely… Perfect!”
