And they're off!

Well, it’s official.

The 50th running of the Iditarod has started. Welcome to the 2022 race trail!!

Ryno team left the starting chute in Willow at 3:06pm March 6th, 2022. Here’s our starting lineup for the Ryno crew. 

Etta Thresher

Dolly Elmer

Tobin Faff

Dracula Smoky 

Oryx Wingman 

Otis Sherlock

Mario Yoshi

It was a balmy 36 degrees and sunny in Willow at the start today! We hope it cools down a bit for our pals on the trail.  The sled dogs tend to enjoy temps hovering around -10 to -20 degrees, so Ryne will likely be keeping the dogs a bit slower until temps begin to cool down. 

The team is on their way to Yentna Station Roadhouse - mile 53 of 1000 miles!

We’ll update with blog posts as often as we can. If you’re interested in following along on the gps tracker, head on over to Iditarod.com to snag your Insider pass.
