Miron Golfman approaches the finish line in Nome for the 2023 Iditarod Trail Invitational race.
Miron Golfman of Anchorage crossed the finish line of the Iditarod Trail Invitational in downtown Nome Wednesday at 12:51 p.m. The human-powered race follows the path of the famed dog race. The course travels along the Historic Iditarod Trail and, according to race organizers, requires self-sufficiency and resilience to make it through up to 30 days and nights of freezing temperatures and inclement weather.
Conditions warmed up on Monday, and that brought a different kind of challenge to the trail, according to Golfman.
