Schandelmeier is battling the weather. He pieced together gear at the starting line from six mushers — he doesn’t even know who — and it doesn’t all fit together well. On Tuesday night, in minus 40 temperatures, he got a little frostbite on his hands and feet.

He’s also battling a bacterial leg infection he got in November, which caused him to be on antibiotics for two months. He’s hobbling a bit, he said, but getting through it.

In this COVIN-19 hysteria, I think it's probably good to pause and consider this guy's toughness.

With all he has going on, I’m not sure tough is a good definition.
