Scroggie Creek

Brent is in the Scroggie Creek dog drop in 6th place, hanging with Hans Gott, Hugh Neff, and William Kleeden. Jon Little and Sebastian Schnuelle have left Scroggie and are on their way to Dawson. From Scroggie it is 100 miles to Dawson, look for Brent and Neff, Kleeden, and Gatt to all run straight there without stopping, this might allow them to pass Little and Schnuelle while they rest. I think Little may have rested already and is on a nonstop run to Dawson himself though.

Mark, Kyla and Thom are in Dawson setting up Wild and Free camp this morning. Mark will send pictures as soon as they are done. Mark was interviewed by KUAC's Dan Bross in Pelly and was featured in the radio update this morning.

Hi Brent,
This is a big cheer from the fourth graders at Eagle Creek Elementary in Shakopee. They are all pulling for you in this race. They said that you "Should go for it" and "Don't give up"
One of the kids said that you should have a "dog gone good time!"
We are all cheering and following you in the race. Mary said that the kindergartners got your message and were thrilled.
Take care and good luck Brent!
