MARQUETTE - For the first time in its 24-year history, the top spot in the U.P. 200 Sled Dog Championship was awarded to the same musher four years in a row.
"It feels pretty good," said champion Ryan Anderson at the U.P. 200 awards breakfast this morning. "The whole time through I was focusing on what was best for my dog team, and whatever happened in the race happened."
Crossing the finish line in Mattson Lower Harbor Park at 12:58:07 p.m. Sunday, Anderson finished the final leg of the race 11 minutes faster than any other musher on the trail.
