Today I witnessed my first Iditarod race. Jeff King led the over 60 mushers into Unalakleet, AK (a checkpoint on the way from Anchorage to Nome) at which the winner receives $2,500 in gold pieces. Lance Mackey (last year's winner) was close behind. At this point, the mushers have been going for 674 miles - unbelievable!
