Iditarod Trail Invitational

Knik Lake, AK

350 & 1,000 mi

The race follows the historic Iditarod Trail, which spans over 1,000 miles from Anchorage to Nome. Participants can choose to race on foot, skis, or fat bike, and must navigate through some of the harshest and most remote terrain in the world, including snow-covered mountains, frozen rivers, and wind-swept tundra. The race is entirely self-supported, meaning that competitors must carry all of their own equipment and supplies, and are not allowed to receive any outside assistance.

The Iditarod Trail Invitational is widely considered to be one of the most challenging and demanding ultra-endurance events in the world, and requires a combination of physical toughness, mental resilience, and expert backcountry skills to complete.
