This week the The Iditarod starts and fans will be snapping images along the trail!
We'll miss the gal in pink running her dogs but appreciate her passion for early detection, mammogram screenings AND helmet safety!
DeeDee Jonrowe, a Breast Cancer Survivor and one tough chick.
In 2003 she finished 18th in the Iditarod, 10 days, 08:40:49 - only three weeks after completing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
In 2024 she was part of the Iron Dog Ambassador Team riding to Nome. Before finding her Iron Dog passion she regularly rode without a helmet, "no more" - she says safety first, she's always in a helmet and proudly a new KLIM wrapped one!
