The roster boasts an incredibly strong field with six Iditarod Champions (Pete Kaiser, Joar Leifseth Ulsom, Mitch Seavey, Lance Mackey, Jeff King, and Martin Buser), and four Yukon Quest Champions (Brent Sass, Lance Mackey, Aliy Zirkle, and Jeff King). Jim Lanier, after having to re-qualify for Iditarod this season, will attempt to continue his record of being the only musher to run the Iditarod in every decade.
In researching the musher links, it's fun to learn about each team - there are a lot of fantastic stories and goals represented in this roster. Enjoy reading up on all of them as I have.
