“2014 my son hooked his snow sled to the golden retriever. I thought we should get a real dog sled. One thing led to another and here we are today.”

Kevin says a mushing highlight is “finishing races in some extreme conditions.”

In the future he hopes for “top 5 finishes and to win a race. build a team that can compete in the Iditarod.”

Favorite quote:

“the greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.”
