Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race
At age 25, Seavey became the youngest musher ever to win the Iditarod, winning the 2012 Iditarod in 9 days, 4 hours, 29 minutes, 26 seconds. He is the son of 2004, 2013 and 2017 Iditarod champion Mitch Seavey. His grandfather, Dan Seavey, is also a veteran Iditarod musher, having competed in the first two Iditarod sled dog races in 1973 and 1974, in addition to the 1997 and 2012 races.
In 2014, Dallas Seavey won his second Iditarod, completing the race less than two minutes ahead of second-place finisher Aliy Zirkle, with a record fast finish time of 8 days, 13 hours 4 minutes and 19 seconds. Seavey's 2014 finish time broke the previous record of 2011 winner John Baker by more than five hours.
In 2015, Seavey won the Iditarod for a third time, in a race held from Fairbanks to Nome, with the official start moved due to a lack of snow in Southcentral Alaska.
In 2016, Dallas Seavey won the Iditarod for a fourth time, this time breaking his own record time. His time was 8 days, 11 hours, 20 minutes, and 16 seconds.
In 2017, Dallas's record time was broken by his father, Mitch Seavey. Mitch Seavey's time was 8d 3h 40m 13s. Dallas came in second place.
