What, who or how and when did you first get involved with the Iditarod?

I got involved with Iditarod through friends. Initially working as a handler and helping train the dogs, and now I am running my own team. I’m here today and involved with Iditarod because I love the sport. I love seeing what the dogs can do and the adventure of Alaska. But, I know for sure in life is that we need to keep seeking out our own personal adventures and that’s what drives us.
