This is the most iconic sled dog race in the world with a history rooted in the 1925 delivery of much-need Diphtheria serum to Nome, Alaska. Sled dogs and dog racing are embedded in Alaskan life. From the arrival of sled dogs in North America to the finish line of the Iditarod in Nome, join in the excitement and enthusiasm for the amazing sport of dog mushing in Alaska.
