10 — Cathy Rivest from St-Paul-de-Joliette, Quebec, Canada.
Age 49.
“I began dogsledding around 12 years old, and we ran a tourist business with our sled dogs. That quickly became competition. One winter as a handler in Alaska, I saw famous races and mushers, and found my passion. I moved closer to town, my kennel shrank, and I began to race 4 and 6 dogs sprint class. My favorite race is Laconia, New Hampshire. I’m so thankful to race the Pedigree Stage Stop Race with my brother’s team. This stage race is a ‘must do’ of a lifetime.”
