    JAMAICA has a dog sled team!

    Newton Marshall has become the first Jamaican to compete in Canada's biggest dog sleigh race.

    The annual 1000-mile "Iditarod" competition is a gruelling trek across the Canadian Yukon from Anchorage to Nome.

    Marshall told local TV: "I'm just feeling happy, as you see the smile on my face, I just can't wait to get out on the route."

    It usually takes about ten days to complete the race.

    The Iditarod commemorates a 1925 rescue mission to deliver medicine to Nome after a diphtheria outbreak.

    Did they have to retrain the dogs to start responding to "GWAAN!" instead of "MUSH!"
