There is Dr. Heather Hadley who is on the handling crew for Sarah Keefer this year. She is sending off Wildfire on the

trail! She’s the vet who helped him recover after he was hit by a snowmobile last year.

Pro tip… visit Bentleyville on a Tuesday night before a major snowstorm. NO crowds! And after 9 years in Duluth, I finally went under the big tree! 🎄❄️
Today was a long and devastating day.
More then 3,000 acres burned by the
#GrayFire
and countless people now without a home.
I gave a woman named Linda a hug today as we watched her house burn near Granite Lake. All she could grab was her purse and her bible 💔
The vet team that took care of Ryan Redington’s dog Wildfire is in the house today!
Cambria, the daughter of surgeon Heather, made sure to bring this good luck charm for Ryan and his team.
Hear from Heather tonight at 10!

MEET MALAYA: The 2022 Mini Sled Dog Races champion! She is a pomsky that came up all the way from the Twin Cities for the race. Her owners say they have a mini sled at home and train with her all the time.
Way to go, Malaya!
PHOTO FINISH! WOW!
Erin Letzring slides across the finish line 7 SECONDS before Ryan Redington.
It was neck-in-neck the entire last leg.
Letzring is the first female winner of the

Kohberger is prepared to wave his right to a speedy trial.
Judge Judge is asking Kohberger if that is what he wants.
Kohberger has responded “yes”

Interesting tidbit: Judge Judge said he received a request to be a juror in this case. He had to make sure both sides were okay with him excusing himself to be a juror.
There were no objections (obviously…)

Happy Lake Superior Day! She sure does live up to her name, dontcha say?
I caught up with Sarah Keefer at Sawbill this morning right after she came in and she says that Wildfire is doing great out on the trail. She said he ate the most out of all her dogs! This is her taking off from Sawbill. Next stop Trail Center!

They are watching the race from their OR this morning! You’ll remember Dr. Hadley and her team are the ones who fixed up Redington’s dog “Wildfire” after he was hit by a snowmobile last year while training in Brule, WI. This was Wildfire’s first season back racing. 2/3
We are seated in the courtroom for a status conference in the
#Kohberger
trial.
As of right now, that trial is scheduled to start in October.
Follow along with this 🧵 for updates.
Things are set to start at 2:15 (about 5 minutes)

#Beargrease2022
coverage!
HUGE thanks to all the mushers, the Beargrease team, and everyone for following virtually along the way.
And a special shout out to our Chief Photographer Wyatt Buckner for being my partner in crime on this race 🐾
BREAKING: Security footage of the crash this morning shows a law enforcement vehicle hitting a pedestrian while the suspect crashes into a wall.
This was the end of a high-speed chase after the suspect fired shots at a sheriff’s deputy.
@kxly4news
The state has no objections to this waving saying they would like it to be resolved sooner than later, but this is the smartest option.
Judge said it would be a lot to put together before Oct. 2nd and he wants everyone to be fully prepared.
@kxly4news
Endless thanks to the
@Vikings
for the amazing tribute today to not just our grandpa, but the legendary teams he coached. It was so special 💜✨
Can’t wait to proudly sport this awesome hat back in Spokane!

Today we are expecting a check-in to make sure both sides are ready to proceed in October, but earlier today the Goncalves family expressed their concern that Kohberger may wave his right to a speedy trial ⬇️

Today marks 5 years since I lost my dad to

14,000+ people in the U.S will receive a GBM diagnosis this year. Let’s find a cure 🙏🏻

For clarification: this means the trial will not happen on Oct. 2nd.
The defense says they are not prepared to set a new trial date today.

Colleen (3rd) cheering on her son Ero (4th) as he makes his way into the finish! They were neck in neck this last run.
Such a special ending 💕
#Beargrease2022
@kxly4news
Defense says they are hoping to keep their Sept. 1st hearing date because they are prepared to file challenges against the grand jury indictment.
They are also filing 2 motions against cameras in the courtroom and what happens to witnesses after they testify.

Pete made the trip to Minnesota to attend my grandpa's funeral.
It was such an honor to meet him and hear some of his stories about what my grandpa meant to him.
Congratulations on a fanatic coaching career, Pete! I know you will be missed on the field 💙💚
Life takes a strange turn when you're crying over Pete Carroll's press conference and he quotes the grandfather of one your anchors.
@naniigrant
- there was a sweet moment with your pal, Pete 💙
Ero and Colleen Wallin took off minutes apart from Sawbill this morning. Colleen got to the chute first, but Ero pulled in front. Last year they were neck and neck up until the finish. It will be interesting to see how they finish this year!

Currently sitting in a line of cars evacuating on W Salnave Rd. towards Cheney.
This traffic is a lot. I would start driving sooner rather then later if you need to go.

My first day in the field was during the snowpocalypse weekend of 2019 ❄️ Even though it was beyond cold, it is one of my favorite memories!
The Beargrease board says they have confirmed “discrepancies in timing sheets” that have impacted the results of the 120 race. Several of the mushers placements have been shifted, but Joanna Oberg remains in 1st.
Here is the previous top 10 finish to compare. ⬇️

Don’t worry! I won’t be going far. You will still see my face around… just in a different role 🤗
HUGE thank you to my weekend team (past and present)! I love you all to bits.
Ryan Redington 2nd and Sarah Keefer 3rd are on their way back to Alaska this morning. Redington left a note for Letzring nominating her for the sportsmanship award after helping him out on the trail.
In my 10 winters of driving in Minnesota this is the worst I’ve ever seen 🥶
Had to stop in Hinckley to decompress.
Don’t travel unless you have to.
( I fall into the have to category 🙃)
