4 teams came down front street almost one right after another. First was Jason followed by Lance a few seconds later. Then Rick Casillo and Timothy Hunt. It was a very emotional finish for the Mackey brothers. It was nice to see all the mushers come out to pay their respects to the great 4 time Champ Lance Mackey, who has had a lot of difficulties throughout the race with very cold temps and frostbite. Jason Mackey, who stayed with his brother through these tough times on the trail also received a great welcome. I have to admit I got a little choked up when they got off their sleds and hugged.
