The Iditarod is the famous long-distance race in which yelping dogs tow a sled across Alaska. The PHILADELPHIA AREA IDIOTAROD is pretty much the same thing, except that instead of dogs, it's people, instead of sleds, it's shopping carts, and instead of Alaska it's Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. The Idiotarod is a shopping cart race in which five “idiots” tie themselves to a (sometimes modified) grocery store shopping cart and run through the streets of a major metropolitan area. The race usually features people in costumes and themed floats. The race, though fun, is competitive, and teams are known to sabotage each other in an effort to win.
