Karen Ramstead, 41, was born in Eastern Canada and raised in Alberta. She began running dogs in the early 90’s after obtaining her first Siberian husky. “Our love for the breed has continued to grow and we now share our lives with over 50 purebred Siberian Huskies. Our team has set many ‘firsts’ for Canada – we are the first CKC registered team of Siberian Huskies to compete in and complete the Iditarod and many of our dogs are Canadian Kennel Club champions and group placers. I am continually inspired by the history, spirit, and presence of the purebred Siberian Husky." Karen had planned to run the Yukon Quest in 2006 but after Mark broke his ankle while loading dogs into the truck after the Knik 200, she decided to run the Iditarod instead, since she didn't need a handler for the Iditarod and did need a handler for the Quest. A member of the Canadian Kennel Club, the Siberian Husky Club of Canada and the International Siberian Husky Club, Karen says her hobbies are showing her dogs and photography.
