2 Introduction The Iditarod is filled with so many awesome and different facts like the Iditarod started in the year It started because the town of Nome had two kids that got sick from a disease called Diphtheria, it was very bad. It would spread, so they held a town meeting and decided that they would have a dog sled race. That is why they carried the medicine all the way to Nome.
