Thursday at dawn, sailors, rowers and paddlers will cast off from Port Townsend, Washington, on a 750-mile marathon up the Inside Passage to Ketchikan, Alaska.
It’s the third edition of the zany “Race to Alaska,” which has two basic rules: no motors and no support crews.
Tom Banse (@TomBanse) of Here & Now contributor Northwest News Network hears from three stand-up paddleboarders competing in the adventure race.
