Iditarod trail reporter Libby Casey caught up with several mushers this year that are mushing with purposes bigger than winning, bigger than just competing.
In this interview, Bruce Linton discusses his purpose:
- proving Type 1 diabetes does not prevent people from achieving great things (Linton himself is a diabetic)
- working with the Diabetes Sports and Wellness Foundation
- testing a continuous glucose monitoring device in development by Medtronic
Linton also wrote an Iditarod 2007 diary at the DSWF site here.
FYI
Nancy,
This is a pretty good audio of Bruce… might be worth linking to the website.
Also, I wanted to talk to you about potential opportunities with the show coming this fall… to help the foundation and our sponsorships.

Chris,
Thought the kids and your mom like to hear this…
