I’ve just discovered that I made an error when I originally calculated Lainey’s checkpoints and times in and out. I confused Yentna and Skwentna checkpoints. She’s at Yentna . . . 34 miles away from where I had her time in and 6 hour break.
*grumble*
The checkpoint I described was Yentna. But thirty-four miles? That’s a lot of ground to make up (though not in the long run, really.) That puts her entire race - rest schedule off, times in and out off . . .
*UGH!*
Maybe I’ll just gloss over it . . . I’m a fiction writer who’s never attended the Iditarod. I should get a little leeway, right?
*grunt*
