This will be Mark's third consecutive year racing Iron Dog. He has worked on the North Slope for BP since 1977, before the oil began flowing down the Pipeline. He is married to Roberta and they have three awesome boys; Grant, Blake and Bryce. As a family they've been commercial fishing in Bristol Bay, home of the World's Largest Sockeye Run, since 1980. Along with riding snowmachines, Mark enjoys watching his sons in their sports activities, hunting, and fishing (with a pole). Without their great sponsors they would not be able to enter this great race. Many THANKS to them all!! See Mark and Jeff's web page at: www.nytro23.com |

Jeff ran the Iron Dog in '97 and '99 and completed both times. Jeff is married to Sandra and they have 4 daughters; Britny, Alex, Brooke and Lauren. He has worked in Prudhoe Bay for 23 years. He enjoys spending time with his family, watching his children in their many activities, riding/working on snow-machines in the winter, fishing and camping in the summer. Jeff would like to thank his partner Mark, and each of their 2008 IronDog sponsors for making this race happen this year!
