The T-Dog 135 is back, and this year we're reopening our middle-distance race to skijor and bikejor participants alongside dog mushers, bikers, and skiers!
All participants will begin with a trailhead start in Manley Hot Springs between 8 AM and 10 AM on Saturday morning. From there, they'll travel 86 miles self-supported to Nenana, managing their own travel and rest schedules along the way.
The trail travels 31 miles from Manley to the historic Tolovana Roadhouse, where participants can expect a warm welcome, hospitality, and potable drinking water for human athletes. Participants are welcome to stop and enjoy the hospitality but are not required to use Tolovana as a checkpoint. From Tolovana, participants will continue another 55 miles self-supported to Nenana. Human-powered participants should review the recommended gear list and be prepared for this remote stretch of trail.
On Sunday morning at 8 AM, dog-powered participants will come together for a Sourdough Start in Nenana, setting off on the final 48-mile stretch up the Tanana River to the finish line at Trail Breaker Kennel in Fairbanks.
Human-powered skiers and bikers will travel the same route but are not required to rest or participate in the Sourdough Start in Nenana. Skiers and bikers do not have a mandatory arrival time in Nenana; however, they must depart the Nenana checkpoint no later than 2 PM on Sunday.
Whether you're racing on runners, skis, or wheels, the T-Dog 135 is an opportunity to challenge yourself, share the trail, and be part of our growing winter sports community in the Tanana Valley!
Trail Distances:
Manley Hot Springs → Tolovana Roadhouse: 31 miles
Tolovana Roadhouse → Nenana: 55 miles
Nenana → Fairbanks: 48 miles
Total: 134 miles
