What better way to race through the cold (long-distance we might add!) than with a bunch of adorable dogs? That’s how Blair Braverman does it exactly.
Blair is a sled dog racer living in Alaska, and her latest goal is conquering The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race.
You may ask, “Yeah, she’s a sled dog racer. So what?” Hold your horses there. Blair gets the attention not only because she’s awesome, but because she tweeted her dogs’ mini biographies to honor them. She introduced them like real people: their special traits, quirks, including the things they liked and disliked. If that doesn’t make you all warm and gushy inside, well, we certainly don’t know what will. (h/t)
Here’s a typical race training day for Blair and the race dogs she’s about to introduce
“Are we going or not?”
Here’s two of them with their game faces on
She’s going to introduce all 20 of them, but only 14 will race this time
