Description
On 9/11/2001 GB Jones moved to his property that borders the Iditarod Trail, in preparation to run the Iditarod Race. In GB’s words, “It was also the day when evil men tried to destroy our nation, but it only made us stronger, more determined, more American. Regardless of what’s thrown our way, we have to develop a stronger resolve and just keep going. We just have to.” GB Jones has never finished in first place in the Iditarod, or any other sled dog race. In 2002 and again in 2004 he completed the 1,100-mile sled dog race at the “end of the pack.” And he scratched from the 2003 race. This is GB’s account of his journey to Nome–how winning can occur to those who don’t arrive first. GB’s ability to take you on the race with him, with all the emotions and physical demands is unlike any other racer’s. You will feel you have run the race—and won—just like he has. Never again will you look at winning or losing in the same way. Come and run the Iditarod… with GB Jones. –
