Mushing, Running and the Great Outdoors! Imagine racing day and night for 14 days straight across the treacherous Alaskan Range Mountains down the bitterly cold Yukon River to the Bering Sea into the town of Nome, Alaska. Three-time Iditarod Racer, Karen Land will bring the race to life through her dynamic presentation and with her companion, Borage, the sled dog.
Karen Land will fascinate you with the stories of her incredible adventures racing with her sled dogs across Alaska in the 1,150 mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. The Iditarod Race is an unbelievably difficult race. More people have reached the summit of Mount Everest than have made it to the Iditarod finish line behind a dog team. Karen went from an observer to a doer in just three short years; it takes most mushers at least that long to work up to the Iditarod. In 2002, Karen took on and finished the biggest, most challenging sled dog race in the world after completing her Iditarod qualifiers in her second year of mushing. She finished the 450 mile Wyoming International Stage Stop Race, The 250 mile Can Am Crown in Maine, and Montana’s 350 mile Race to the Sky Sled Dog Race in just two months.
