Musher levels record number of wins in Alaska s Iditarod sled dog race

Dallas Seavey wins 5th Iditarod

DESHKA LANDING An unusual Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race ended early Monday with a familiar champion. Talkeenta’s Dallas Seavey and his 10 sled dogs dashed to the finish line near Willow at 5:09 a.m. Wearing an orange parka, Seavey kicked to the finish behind a perky string of sled dogs. This is Seavey’s fifth Iditarod win, tying him with Rick Swenson for the most Iditarod victories ever. Swenson has held the record alone since 1991. Asked to summarize how he felt about his fifth win, Seavey said, “Comes after four, I guess.” It’s a big deal, the 34-year-old Seavey admitted. Since becoming the youngest Iditarod musher to win in 2005 at the age of 25, people had predicted he might go on to win five.

Musher Dallas Seavey captures his record-tying fifth Iditarod championship

The 49th Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race concluded with a familiar winner and a record-tying finish. Musher Dallas Seavey won his record-tying fifth Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race championship on Monday by crossing the finish line at 5:08 am Alaska Daylight Time. The veteran musher crossed the finish line in seven days, 14 hours, eight minutes and 57 seconds with 10 dogs in harness. Dallas Seavey s win in Iditarod 49 epitomizes the grit, determination and perseverance for which our race is synonymous, said Iditarod CEO Rob Urbach said in a statement. This year, teams were challenged unlike ever before, which included traversing the notorious Dalzell Gorge and Alaska Range twice, and Dallas showed incredible adaptability with being able to excel in arctic camping, strategic run timing and dog whispering in concert with our stringent COVID-19 protocols. Congratulations to Dallas and we thank Iditarod Nation for their support this year.
