Iditarod is the nickname of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. It is also called the Last Great race on Earth. The race is held in Alaska every year since 1973. It was developed after the Iditarod Trail Seppala Memorial Race in honor of Leonhard Seppala was first held in 1967 failed to attract many entries. This early race was only 25 miles long and honored the man who helped deliver medication to the back country people of Alaska.
The first of the modern races, in 1973, was not truly a memorial race, but was designed to show case the sport of dog sled racing. The press has always made the connection, but it is not a valid assumption.
