About the Iditarod
United States
Ends: Mar 19, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
The Iditarod Trail (National Historic Trails in 1978. 938 miles (1,510 km) from Seward to Nome) was used during the gold rush years. Teams of dogs brought much needed supplies to rural areas of Alaska during its unforgiving winters.
The Iditarod dog sled race, which follows the original trail, is a 1,049 miles and takes 8-13 days to run. It usually starts each year on the first Saturday of March. The modern Iditarod was first run in 1973. It is considered one of the toughest endurance sports in the world.
Sled dogs were used for transportation in Alaska up through the 1950s. The invention of the snowmobile replaced the dog teams. In 1973 the Iditarod was created to hold on to that heritage.
The route alternates every other year trading off between the northern and southern routes mid race. The race is run each year beginning in Anchorage and ending in Nome Alaska.
