Trent pulled in to Nome this morning. he finished the great race in 25th place. He made the 77 mile trip from White Mountain in 9 hr 54 min at 7.77 mph. His overall time for the race was slighly over 10 1/2 days. His best previous finish was 48th place and and 12 1/2 days. It was a great race and a great year for Trent.
The goal for the 2011 campaign had been: “Moving day, as in moving up the standings… stronger kennel… mid 10 day finish in top 30"
Trent nailed it. He even led the race on two occasions and was first musher to the halfway point.
