Mitch Seavey
Posted: Tue Feb 19, 2008 4:54 pmHello,
Here is a starter fan thread for Mitch Seavey, who will be running his 13th (actual number ?) Iditarod this year. Mitch was a Top Ten finisher last as the 9th musher across the finish line. In addition, he was the winner in 2004, and has been in every race since 1995. He also won a tough Kuskokwim 300 race this year.
The Seavey Family is somewhat of a legend in Alaskan mushing circles, with three generations having competed in the Iditarod and other races. Mitch's father, Dan Seavey helped Joe Reddington put the Iditarod Sled Dog Race together, and ran the event twice in the 1970's. Mitch's three sons have all finished the race.

Well good luck to Mitch. He is always one of my favorites. It is also time for my yearly hello to the Seavey clan. I am a fan of you all! Please tell Tyrell to pry himself away from his new wife and his college books and get Ultimate Iditarod up and running again. Tyrell we will miss your perspectives on the race.
