There is a town on the iditarod trail named idtarod, so they named the trail after it i guess.
The race is named after the town of Iditarod.
The Iditarod Trail was a trail used to transport goods that ran from Seward, passed through Iditarod, then ended in Nome. Iditarod was named after the Iditarod River. In the early 1900s, it saw a boom due to gold mining. After the gold was exhausted, the town became a ghost town.
The official nickname of the Iditarod's race is called The Last Great Race on Earth. The Iditarod is a sled dog race held in Nome, Alaska. ha-ha-ha. turn around. you are about to be hit.

the iditarod originated from the serum run.
The Centennial Race, along portions of the Iditarod Trail, was the brainchild of Dorothy G. Page, who wanted to sponsor a sled dog race to honor mushers. With the support of Joe Redington, Sr. (named the 'Father of the Iditarod' by one of the local newspapers), the first race (then known as the Iditarod Trail Seppala Memorial Race in honor of Leonhard Seppala) was held in 1967 and covered 25 miles (40 km) near Anchorage.
People enter the Iditarod to win the money. They also enter the race to be in the outdoors and to say that they raced the Iditarod. People enter the Iditarod to win the money. They also enter the race to be in the outdoors and to say that they raced the Iditarod.
