It was great to have the ceremonial start take place once again in Anchorage. Last year it was canceled because of COVID-19 We decided to watch the teams come down the Cordova Street hill and then along Chester Creek, instead of going to the Start line on 4th Avenue downtown. Still don’t feel comfortable in large, packed crowds.

It was snowing like crazy at the start making for fun photographs. We’re expecting up to 8” of snow today. Anyway, as usual, I’m putting up way too many pictures. Enjoy.
