ANCHORAGE - A musher, Matt Giblin, from the 2012 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race has been disqualified for his 38th place finish, and must return the $1,049 each musher who finishes the Iditarod receives.
He tested positive for THC, but unsuccessfully appealed the sanctions. The race's Rule 30 states "positive results on drug or alcohol tests administered during a Race are each prohibited," and that violations of the policy will result in disqualification.
