Appetite and Attitude: A Conversation with Lance Mackey
45 minute video about the world’s preeminent long distance sled dog racer – and a true Alaskan legend! In 2007 – and again in 2008 – Lance Mackey made racing history when he won two 1,000 mile races back-to-back, the Yukon Quest and the Iditarod, with most of the same dogs – an incredible feat of endurance, long considered almost impossible.
Lance’s indomitable lead dog, Larry, is the only dog in the world to win the coveted Golden Harness Award from both of these grueling races. For his achievements Lance was nominated for a 2007 ESPY – Excellence in Sports Performance Award, and in 2008 he was named Sports Illustrated’s #2 Toughest Athlete in the World.
Lance, a cancer survivor, comes from a family of sled dog racing champions. His father Dick Mackey helped create the world’s most famous race, the 1,049 mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, in 1973. Five years later his father won the race by one second in a world-famous photo finish.
Lance, his wife Tonya, and their family make their home – Comeback Kennels – near Fairbanks, Alaska. In this video Lance talks about his dogs, his races, his family legacy and his dreams for the future! Videography by Donna Quante (producer/videographer: Pretty Sled Dogs) brings a special touch to this video. This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
