Iditarod 2007 is in the books


It is official... Lance Mackey has won the 2007 Iditarod with a finishing time of 9 Days 5 Hours 8 Minutes 41 Seconds. Although our family was really routing for Jeff King (who will most likely finish in 5th place in the next few hours), Lance's win has a nice story behind it. His Dad and his brother both won their 6th Iditarod races wearing bib #13. This was Lance's 6th Iditarod and he chose bib #13. Don't tell me 13 is an unlucky number! It sure worked for him! Congratulations, Lance!
