Meet  long-distance musher Gerry Willomitzer and his racing kennel, located near Whitehorse, Yukon. The kennel has currently 50 adult dogs and 20 pups, and can look back at finishing four Yukon Quests and three Iditarods.
Fewer than 20 dog teams worldwide ever completed the 1000-mile Yukon Quest and the 1100-mile Iditarod back to back. Gerry & the dogs became part of this "club" in 2007.


NEWS:
Back-to-back in 2010 - we are signed up for Yukon Quest and Iditarod!

Gerry signed up for the 2010 Yukon Quest on the first day of sign-up. He was at the Quest office in downtown Whitehorse at 10 AM to submit his paperwork and pay the US $1500 entry fee. After finishing 12th, 6th, 5th and 3rd between 2004 and 2007 Gerry did  not participate in the Quest in 2008 and 2009, focusing on the Iditarod instead. Now he feels it's time to go back to his "hometown race" (he lives 20 minutes from the finish line). The Yukon Quest will start Feb 6, 2010 in Fairbanks, Alaska.

In September Gerry also signed up for the 2010 Iditarod. The $4000 entry fee is just a fraction of the cost involved, and Gerry has been working hard all summer to raise the money. The Iditarod will start in Anchorage, Alaska on March 6, 2010 and finish in Nome, Ak on the Bering Sea coast about 10 days later.
