Love hearing this! The name originated from a Siberian husky and sled dog (Balto) who led his team on the final leg of the 1925 serum run to Nome to stop the deadly diphtheria epidemic. Given one of our challenges is a 'survival pool' we thought it was fitting as you must be the 'leader of the pack' during the long race to win/survive the challenge.
