I talk with with identical twin sisters Anna and Kristy Berington, dog mushers and co-owners of Seeing Double Sled Dog Racing kennel. They share with us how having free range growing up instilled a self-reliance and "can do" attitude that's served them well out on the trails; how two sisters from Wisconsin made their way to racing the legendary Iditarod dog race; what drives them to keep racing in these harsh conditions; and what having 40some fury colleagues is like year round. They candidly speaks about how they go about keeping financially afloat to keep doing what they love. They also share some great advice for anyone considering dog mushing.
