Robert Nelson 22h 26m from Elim to WM!

I was looking at the standings and I saw this! Wow, I bet there is a story in there somewhere.

I looked back over his race and he seemed to be moving along well in 20th place. He ran almost 15 hours from Kaltag to Unk so he must have stopped along the way. He rested 4.5 hours in Unk then 4 hours in Shak then 3 hours in Koyuk. then it looks like he tried to blow through Elim and his dogs must have quit on him. 22h 26 min to WM. Wow!
