Iditarod

 



And the winner is...Lance Mackey! His dad won the race in 1978; his older brother, Rick, won it in 1983. Lance covered the 1,150 mile course in 9 days, 5 hours, 8 minutes and 41 seconds - the thrid fastest time ever. Paul Gebhart finished more than two hours later.

When his dad, Dick, won the race he won by ONE second. Imagine driving your dog team 1,150 miles and LOSING by a second.
