Elements IDITA-Run 2011 and Closing Ceremonies

As the Alaskan Iditarod was in it's final days we had our very Annual Elements Idita-Run and Fantasy Iditarod.
For the Fantasy Iditarod - each Elements participant was given the bib number and name of one of the Iditarod Teams.  They were told how to follow the Alaskan race by checking the race standings on the web-site.  By our final Elements -we had a winners of the Fantasy Iditarod and of course winners from our own Elements Iditarun.  It was a fun way to bring awareness to one of the greatest and most challenging adventure races of all time!

And they're off for the Elements Idita-run.  The course is set up just like in the Alaskan Iditarod - we race from Anchorage to Nome and have check points and vet checks along the way.  We don't have dogs, sleds or the snow!

Elements Extreme awards go to the Elements participant that attends every session regardless of the weather, the homework load, the mood or the energy.  We promise that they will feel stronger, brighter, better and more focused after an hour in the woods!
