Known as the last great race on the earth, the Iditarod is an
1150-mile sled dog race across the most dangerous and extreme
terrain of Alaska. Fifty-eight year old Kathy Frederick is one of the
oldest female rookie competitors to ever compete in this treacherous
race. Kathy left a very cozy and successful life as a lawyer in
Pennsylvania to move to Alaska to live out a lifelong dream of
competing in the 2010 Iditarod. The race is the longest dog sledding
race in the world and more than half of the competitors don’t finish the
race. The web series will document Kathy’s journey the three months
leading up to the race in March of 2010. You, the viewer will get to
experience her journey with daily blog updates and web posts. Using
live streaming, users can watch Kathy in real time and ask her
questions about her training. Will Kathy be able to fulfill her life long
dream and actually cross the finish line? You’ll just have to watch what
happens to find out.
