NOME, Alaska (KTUU) — Bethel musher Peter Kaiser has won the 2019 Iditarod early Wednesday morning, making him the first Yup'ik Iditarod champion.
Kaiser arrived in Nome at 3:39 a.m., driving his dogs under the burled arch to fanfare and applause. He finished in 9 days, 12 hours, 39 minutes and 6 seconds.
According to Iditarod officials, Kaiser had eight dogs in harness when he crossed the finish line to win the Iditarod XLVII title. He will be awarded his prize money as well as a new 2019 Ram truck on March 17.
Kaiser came in 12 minutes ahead of defending champion Joar Leifseth Ulsom, who made a late surge, but ultimately took second place at 3:51 a.m.

ALASKA PING WINNER OF IDITAROD
I heard his team...."I feel so used". "Yeh...but we eat a whole lot better than a shitsu".
Those dogs are getting all the Milk Bones they want about now. :)
Great, he must have passed post race inspection with flying tails..
Only 8 running at the end? Give them dogs a big King salmon.
and he gets a wicked truck to boot. Sweet..
I’m sure the dogs were thinking “screw that truck, you whipped and yelled at us for a hundred miles and all we get is a truck for YOU?! F that. we want hot women dogs as a reward..”
God Bless the Dogs.
Documentary/summary video?
King Salmon Head Soup and T-Bone Steaks, more likely.
Sadly animal rights whack jobs are doing all they can to stop this event. These wonderful dogs LOVE their work, as purpose bred dogs all love their jobs. But with PETA and idiot AR folks running their narrative who knows how long this race will continue.
Thanks for posting.
I really enjoy any Alaska News that is non political.
Is why I’m posting all I can of this. Am so sick of PETA
I can understand dog talk.
