You can’t compare it to any other competitive event in the world! A race over 1150 miles of the roughest, most beautiful terrain Mother Nature has to offer. She throws jagged mountain ranges, frozen river, dense forest, desolate tundra and miles of windswept coast at the mushers and their dog teams. Add to that temperatures far below zero, winds that can cause a complete loss of visibility, the hazards of overflow, long hours of darkness and treacherous climbs and side hills, and you have the Iditarod.
In 16 days, on March 7th, the 2009 Iditarod will begin! Our favorites will be there with me cheer for Martin Buser, first, then Lance Mackey, lastly watching Jeff King and DeeDee Jonrowe, all of whom I am pleased to see are still on the mushers list!
