From AlaskaUltraSport.com:
Loreen & Tim Hewitt and Rick Brickley arrived in McGrath this morning at 12:58 AM with Loreen braking her own female foot record from 2008 by 3 hours and 42 minutes so we have a new female foot record!
Tim left McGrath at 6:45 AM this morning continuing on to Nome for the 5th time! He holds the southern route foot record to Nome, 25 days 9 hours and 29 minutes. This year the route follows the Northern Route (even numbered years). Good luck Tim!
