Iditarod race officials reinstated the event’s reigning rookie of the year days ahead of the start of the Last Great Race.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - from the 2024 Iditarod due to “personal conduct” allegations, the Iditarod Trail Committee reversed course and reinstated Burke, the race’s defending rookie of the year winner.
The board has not yet specified details that led them to make that decision, but Burke had been charged with third-degree assault and fourth-degree assault by the state, according to records in Courtview that were filed May 27, 2022. When asked if he plans to race in this year’s Iditarod, Burke responded to requests for comment Friday by saying he is in the process of rebuilding his dog team.
