Rachael Scdoris is a blind Iditarod racer from the
Alaskan sphere. Her only dream is to become the best Iditarod racer. Iditarod is a sled racing sport. But, it seems that getting in Iditarod is the greatest challenge for Rachael and her family because every racing game, most especially the Iditarod, requires eyes. You need clear vision in order to see where you are going. However for Rachael, this is not a serious problem.
She's a talented 21-year old woman who has courage to join Iditarod. Because of her determination, the Alaskan team accepted her and trained her. She has a personal visual interpreter, Ellering, who guides her direction every time she's blasting off with her sled on the
cold white mountains of Alaska. Ellering has actually no difficulty in guiding and assisting her, save for the communication device. Rachael has to hold a radio while on her way and her other hand holds the sled. It's quite dangerous when she accidentally drops the radio. Fortunately, this has never happened though.
One day, a good-hearted policeman granted Rachael's wish. He gave her, Ellering, and her family a wireless device to aid her in her race. He donated a wireless headset from Television Equipment Associates. Now she doesn't need to hold anything but the sled. She just has to listen to Ellering's directions and her family's cheers with her wireless headphone.
