The world’s longest, toughest race has begun and for the 25th time, Todd Palin is one of the participants. Instead of stock cars, those who attempt to tame the Iron Dog do so on snowmachines. The annual event is a grueling race that has been thrilling Alaskans since 1984. The First Dude, Todd Palin is back on the course looking for his fifth crown. The Iron Dog is tough on man and machine. Palin winning the race four times is very impressive.”
I’ll say! This photo was taken two years ago, and I was impressed then! The fact that my dad keeps going strong year after year is an inspiration. Great dad. Great man. Great competitor.
