The 2018 race started with 11 teams (22 mushers in total) and 10 of
those teams were able to cross the finish line. Makivik noticed more
young mushers this year as well as new teams starting up in the
communities. Ivakkak’s veteran mushers have been mentoring youth in
their communities so Makivik expects to see more mushers registering
in future races.
Willie Cain Jr., along with Ken Labbe from Tasiujaq took first place
with a total time of 47 hours, 16 minutes and 44 seconds. Aisa Surusilak
