“It’s a great opportunity to create exposure for the sport globally,” Urbach said in an interview Tuesday. “We’re creating a season of events, so this is Iditarod 365, 24/7.” |

Organizers of the 1,000-mile wilderness trek have for decades ignored or taken a defensive stance against People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, said Iditarod CEO Rob Urbach, who took the helm of the organization in July. The old response hasn’t worked, Urbach said. He has started talking to PETA about dog care and will meet Thursday with the group’s executive vice president Tracy Reiman in Los Angeles.
