Bezanson’s Aaron Peck is in 16th place so far at the Iditarod sled dog race in Alaska.

He made it to the Cripple checkpoint, 425 miles into the 975-mile race, just before 10 p.m. Alberta time last night.

Peck headed out again after a rest of just over six-and-a-half hours.

He has 13 of the 14 dogs he started with still going.

Peck is sandwiched between former champions Mitch Seavey and Lance Mackey in the overall standings.

The Iditarod runs between Anchorage and Nome, Alaska.
