Ken Chezik started Day One of the Anchorage Fur Rendezvous World Championship Sled Dog Race in second position on Friday and finished in first — by a significant time.
The veteran musher from Fife Lake, Mich., ran the 25-mile course in 88 minutes and 46 seconds. That’s almost five minutes faster than his first-day time last year, when he finished in third place at the end of the three day race.
