Timothy Hunt, 43, was born in Michigan and lived in Detroit until 1993, when he moved to Marquette, because "I wanted to live where I vacationed." A veterinarian for the last 19 years, he graduated with his DVM from Michigan State University. He began mushing in 1993 and says that after working as a veterinarian on the Iditarod may times, he became interested in actually running it. This will be his rookie Iditarod but he has run a number of races in the lower 48 and the Grande Odyssee in Europe.  He is a member of the ISDVMA, the UPSDA, the AVMA and Mush with PRIDE. In his spare time he enjoys skiing, fishing, fixing animals and baseball.  Tim's family includes wife Mary, stepson Tom and daughter in law, Emiily.
