I'm glad this musher pulled the stats to prove what fans' guts have been saying: ITC is giving less & less time to finish, regardless of actual distance. #UglyDogs

I have no words. The astounding generosity of each person who donated or shared, not to mention the organizers, matching donors, spreadsheet elves... You've changed so many lives for the better. And you've shown countless people what care and community look like, at a time when it's easy to forget.

We’ve arrived to Nome, The Widow’s Lamp has been extinguished signaling all mushers are safely off the trail, and the spreadsheet is locked! We will work on updating the final tally for you all in the next day or so. Thank you so much for all your support, shares, matches! #igivearod #UglyDogs

What do I remember from 2019? Meeting new old friends, cheering as Blair ran the ceremonial and then the official start. I remember the UglyDogs going Bleral. I don't remember Tuesday of the second week. I remember crying as they team reached the finish. I will always, always remember the Igivearod.

Blair and Q have created a group where, even (or especially) when things get tough, we lean together and bring along those in need. What a gift. Tonight I supported this classroom who is looking for books. That’s it. BOOKS. Can you join me or signal boost? #UglyDogs #Igivearod

Rerun Kennel (Justin) posted on Facebook about 20 minutes ago about his journey and decision to scratch. But in my opinion it looks REALLY bad on the race I commend rerun for maintaining their professionalism in expressing only disappointment in what I’m sure is infuriating circumstances #UglyDogs

#UglyDogs, Yes, we are in contact and I would kindly ask to maybe not bombard them with messages right now. :) They have a lot of things on their plate right now. The GoFundMe is still open, and their merch store is here: www.rerunkennel.com/shop

It's been a TOUGH week/ month/year... I had to step away from this app for a few days after this week's events. But you know what makes a tough week better? #UglyDogs and the #Igivearod. Quite frankly, the best thing to come out of the Iditarod in my opinion. Not sure how long I'll stick around...1/

Everything about this Kennel pulls on my heart strings. After a tough week, it makes me very happy to be able to donate on behalf of Q, Sydney, and Justin. I'm so proud of all of them. #Igivearod #UglyDogs

Woke up to the news that Iditarod withdrew Q and another team that both wanted to keep going. My heart is so shattered for Q with everything that is going on right now. @quincemountain.bsky.social and @blairbraverman.bsky.social you mean the world to us #uglydogs. We are so proud of you, always ❤️

So I know this is already out there, but in the interest of doing my self-appointed job as Iditarod live-ish tweeter, it appears that Sydnie Bahl, Quince Mountain, and Justin Olnes have been withdrawn from the race for being too far back in the field. #mushersky 1/

I'm just sad. I don't want the ITC to turn Iditarod into Everest. Yes, it's a race. Yes, you want to challenge your limits. But it shouldn't be an attempt at the fastest factory line to Nome. That's not the spirit. And it'll only encourage mushers to push their bodies & dogs too far. #UglyDogs

So much can change in the last 200 miles of the #Iditarod, especially with a tight race, so it's exciting to see how this will play out. Paige has been in the top 3 for several days now (and she was the first musher to the age at Galena). I'd love to see a woman win this year!

Celebrating some trans joy today as my online friend @quincemountain.bsky.social has passed the halfway point in the Iditarod! His dog team is led by nearly 12yo badass Pepé 👑 (howling in the pic). Wishing Q and team a smoother trail and positive vibes 🏳️‍⚧️🐕🛷❄️ #UglyDogs Who runs the world? Pepé
