Dallas Seavey won the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race for the fourth time in five years early Tuesday morning, mushing a team of six built-for-speed sled dogs led by Reef and Tide. He's the sixth four-time champion and the fourth to win three races in a row.

85 teams left the starting line last Sunday; most of the 73 remaining have yet to reach Nome, and will probably straggle in over the next 36 hours.
