Bridgett may just be the most positive, up-beat person you could ever meet. She is certainly one of the most excited racers in the CB300. Crossing the finish line after almost 60 hours on her rookie running of the race, Bridgett was just as happy and excited as when she started.
As you will see, her dogs look absolutely fantastic. This may be partly due to the fact that they had more rest that the dogs on the other teams, but it is certainly mostly due to her excellent care of them throughout. You will also see some very sweet footage of Aliy greeting the dogs on their arrival, some post-race dog care and some very happy smiles.
Congratulations on your great run, Bridgett! What fun to see such happy dogs at the end of the race!
What a great job BJ did with those happy huskys! I have complete confidence in her abilities and her decisions. 300 miles of wilderness trail and a smile at the end do not always come hand in hand. So, BJ… I am impressed (as always) and grateful that you are the person that you have become. We love you.

Congratulations, Bridgett on your finish in the race. You did something only a very few elite people do in the world. Your cheerfulness is contagious.
Thanks, Mac for posting this. Seeing what SpKennel is up to is something my kids and I look forward to. They have been asking what the dogs are doing now that the race is over. I have told many about "my" sled dog team down here in sunny, southern California and that this website is such a great way to learn about sled dogs and Alaska.
Congratulations once again to SPKennel for your finishes in the CB300 and for your Humanitarian Award.
Great job Bridgette! Can't wait to follow you in more races!!
The way that SP Kennel works as a complete team is such a positive example for the rest of us!
Mac ~ Wonderful video! You have such a talent for capturing the moment! Is that Bridget we hear in the background singing Village People ~ "Nacho Nacho Man". We wanna hear more!
thanks, nice post.
