I always used to get excited
when it was time for the Iditarod
to start.
There was something pure,
something elemental about it.
Men nearly died every year.
Dozens of dogs never made it home.
A sacred celebration of what
we can endure, both from the weather
and from disease.
The first to Nome was a hero
for a year, but all who finished were winners,
including the person given the red lantern.
