LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Allworx, a Windstream company, today announced its participation in Alaska’s world-famous Iditarod as a Team Dog sponsor and provider of the race’s phone system, supporting communications from the ceremonial starting line in Anchorage to each of its 24 checkpoints and the finish line in Nome.
The 41st Annual Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race gets underway Saturday, March 2, with sixty-six mushers and their teams of 12 to 16 dogs covering approximately 1,000 miles of the roughest terrain Mother Nature has to offer. Teams race through jagged mountain ranges, frozen rivers, dense forests, desolate tundra and miles of windswept coastlines, all fighting to be the winner of the Last Great Race on Earth.
“Allworx – a strong, quick, and reliable contender in the telecommunications race – shares the same spirit as the Iditarod and knows what it’s like to be a winner in a tough environment,” said Chris Hasenauer, vice president and general manager of Allworx. “We couldn’t be more proud to be a part of it.”
