16-hour shifts are for modern wimps. A routine shift for residents and interns in the early 1970s in charity hospitals was a 32-hour shift (arrive Monday morning, be on duty all night until finish the following afternoon, sometimes without sleep).

For an interesting and often enjoyable read about the Iditarod, I highly recommend Gary Paulsen's Winterdance.

Especially with the green ones, I cannot unsee Cthulhu.
