The ultimate sled dog race - Iditarod. Mushing 1149 long miles across Alaska from Anchorage to Nome ! The annual Iditarod sled dog race is the most popular dog mushing sporting events in Alaska. The top mushers from around the world are competing against each other - and are challenged by blizzards, sub-zero temperatures, whiteout conditions and gale force winds along the icy and frozen Bering Sea Coast on their strenuous way to the finishing line in Nome.
