 Iditarod race coverage is FREE to all race fans!  Visit www.iditarod.com for the latest race updates.  Locate the mushers and follow them from checkpoint to checkpoint as they travel from Anchorage to Nome.  As mushers arrive at checkpoints, the website race data will be updated.  Check the website many times a day.  Don't miss a minute of the action

To follow the musher's progress, go to www.iditarod.com and click:

If you get a screen asking for an email address, please type in an email address.  Access to the site is FREE ---  but we are collecting email addresses to help us identify where our users are so that we can use the data to create better race coverage for all of our fans.

If you are in computer lab situations, each computer needs to have an email address put into the registration field.  This can be the SAME email address for all computers.  We are not asking for email addresses from children.  Please provide the students with a general -- easy to submit --- email address. 

This is a one time request this year, not requiring you to submit and email address each time you visit the website to view the race updates.   The computer you are using should be recognized once you've submitted an email address.  We realize that submitting an email address is a slight inconvenience for you and apologize for any frustration you encounter.  Thanks for your patience and understanding as we continue to provide the best ever race coverage for fans and classrooms around the world.
