Mary England
Mary is always a welcome part of the Challenge family....she is unfailingly cheerful and spreads so much joy around her. We're delighted that she will be back racing with us in February.
According to Mary: 'Hobbies and interests that aren’t mushing related are becoming fewer and far between! Does summertime hiking with the pups count? Bike rides down the logging roads with the team on the off season? We enjoy paddling with the family, bike packing trips and generally hanging out on the land. I also love lounging on the couch sharing a snooze with our old retired dog. And sleeping in, especially when Jesse brings me a coffee!'
