UPDATE: Urban Iditarod LA

OK, ok, so now I know what it is...even better than I originally thought:

In this race, teams of three or more "dogs" pull a "sled" that is guided by a musher. As with any great sporting event, pre-hydration is highly recommended before the start. Once the race begins, barking is encouraged. The teams will regularly stop at designated watering holes to rest their paws. These stops will include both private and public drinking establishments. Although this is not a competition, tradition stipulates that teams move briskly throughout the course.
