This fictional biography is the story of Leonard Seppela and his lead dog, Togo. Amongst their many accomplishments was running the longest leg of the Serum Run.

Gary Paulsen’s experiences as he trains and ultimately runs the Iditarod dogsled race.  Paulsen vividly describes the effects of bone-chilling cold, physical exhaustion, and the spirit of competitiveness that dominates the event.
