Yukon Quest '09Sunday, February 22, 2009Out of Circle
Wild and Free headed out of Circle after a 5.5 hour rest. Holding strong at 5th place, well ahead of Martin Buser who has yet to reach Circle, and behind Schnuelle but still in it for 4th place if Schnuelle is resting down the trail. Brent dropped Heckel here due to a sore shoulder resulting from a misstep into a crack in the trail. Next checkpoint is the village of Central, 74 miles away, then its up Eagle Summit and Rosebud and down to Fairbanks. Go Wild and Free!
 Meat snacks for the dogs. Get 'em going. Check out. Back on the trail. Silver and Rosie in lead, Ling Ling and The Dude in swing, Rocky behind Ling Ling.  From the sled forward, Walter and Taco in wheel, Maud, Rocky and Budget, Ling Ling and The Dude, Silver and Rosie in lead.posted by gunderson # 3:23 PM

Go Brent! And great job to everyone else on the Wild and Free team....
We're cheering and sending good luck from Montana. Brent, you always thrive when things get tough for everyone else, so we know you are gonna kick some butt on Eagle and Rosebud!!!!!! Kristin and Duncan
Thanks for naming the dogs in the pictures. It's really fun to be able to recognize them.
Current standings say you're out of Central - will be thinking about the team extra today as you tackle Eagle Summit. Go get 'em! Go Wild and Free! howls 'n roos, -Pat, Mike, Julia and Gordo # posted by
