A musher from Jamaica competing in a sled dog race? Mush, mon! The Jamaica Dogsled Team is sending Newton Marshall to the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race that kicks off Saturday with a ceremonial start in Anchorage, Alaska. Among those rooting for Marshall is Mar- garitaville icon Jimmy Buffett, who has been the team’s primary sponsor since it was founded by a friend. “I love the absurdity that when we first did this, people laughed and thought it was a joke and guess what? It isn’t.” Marshall is vying to become the first black musher to complete the 1,100-mile event. The Associated Press
