The event began in 1984 as a race in Alaska from Big Lake near Wasilla to Nome. It was approximately doubled to at the 10th annual race in 1994.〔 The race route now follows parts of the Iditarod Trail, the route of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. It starts at Big Lake and follows the main trail and its connecting trails until it hits to the Yukon River at Ruby. It follows the river to Kaltag before it heads to the Norton Sound on the Bering Sea at Unalakleet and it follows the coast to Nome. Then it returns along the same path in the reverse order to Ruby, where it diverges off its original path by following the Yukon River and its tributary the Tanana River until the competitors finish in Fairbanks. The route changes from time to time; total length has been 1,971 to 2,031 miles since 1993, extended to 2,031 miles in 2011.〔(Iron Dog Web site: History )〕 the fastest time since 1993 was 35 hours 39 minutes 56 seconds by Marc McKenna & Dusty VanMeter on a Ski-Doo in 2012,〔()〕 although this figure is dependent upon route length and conditions rather than being a straightforward record; fastest times have exceeded 71 hours.
