Jessie Holmes won the 2026 Iditarod for the second year in a row, completing the 1,000-mile race in 9 days, 7 hours, and 32 minutes.
Jessie Holmes won the 2026 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race for the second straight year, becoming the third musher in the event’s 54-year history to repeat as champion.
The 1,000-mile journey from Willow to Nome took nine days, 7 hours, and 32 minutes, with Holmes guiding his team across rugged terrain.
His prize money reached about $80,000, boosted by a $100,000 contribution from Norwegian billionaire Kjell Rokke, who competed in a noncompetitive category.
Another participant pledged $50,000 to youth sports programs.
The race drew 34 competitors, one of the smallest fields in history, due to rising costs and retirements.
One dog, Charly, died during the race; a necropsy is pending.
The Iditarod faces ongoing scrutiny over dog welfare, though the race does not track fatalities.
