A FAMILY WITH OVER 120 INTERNATIONAL MEDALS
A FAMILY WITH OVER 120 INTERNATIONAL MEDALS
My family has about 30 dogs, and together we have won over 120 international medals in dog sled racing. In 2015 I won the World Championship in Germany, with the fastest time over all juniors and seniors. After seeing my mom win 25 World Championship gold medals, 15 European gold medals, 23 Norwegian gold medals, and with 67 international medals, I decided to follow my own dream instead of doing what everyone else expected me to do. Then I began playing golf. In 2018 I moved to America to prepare myself to become a professional golfer after 4 years of college golf. Dog Sled Racing will always be a big part of me, and I love the sport, but I had to do follow my heart.
This is a trailer of the Dog Power Movie that two Americans (Kale Casay and Jordan Schevene) made in 2015. My family played a key part in the movie, and it is viewed all around the world. Only a select few actually understand what kind of dog races we do, so please watch the video to better understand.

The Final Decision
The Final Decision
It was an incredible experience winning the World Championship, but at the same time I decided it was time for me to make a decision. I felt as though most of the results had a lot to do with my moms hard work, and that everyone expected me to win just because I was her daughter. At the same time, I was playing golf and I have always loved the game. At the podium in Germany I remember I was thinking that it was time for me to focus on golf and go my own way. I am very thankful for all the traveling around the world that I have experienced through dog sledding and all the people I have met which has made me the person I am today. I still live in a home surrounded by dogs, so I guess I will always consider myself a dog sled racer.
