I was born in Prague, Czech Republic. When I was six I wanted to be a veterinarian, while other girls wanted to be flight attendants.
I spent a year in Canada, making lots of great friends, and falling in love deeper with mushing and the Nordic Country.
Visited the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race start in Anchorage in March 1993 and set my goal to run and finish this race at least once in my life with a team of my beloved purebred siberian huskies.
To follow my dreams of breeding my dogs and competing in long distance races, I based a company in 1996 (21 years old then) to support my journey financially. The company grew and established well, but took a great toll - lack of time for my dogs and work out and mainly great psychical exhaustion led into gaining 50kg overweight, experiencing a nerveous breakdown and rolling down with my overall health. I stopped racing and breeding my dogs.
By then I knew I took a wrong path and started working towards my "back to nature - back to myself" motto and lifestyle. Went to natural healer, started using herbal teas, attended 2 Reiki degrees and one of Shia-tsu and Reflex teraphy. In 2002 I met my partner and great supporter Jachym, whom I took to Alaska in 2003 to show him what my heart misses and desires. He fell in love with the North and after hard work for now "our" goal, we settled in northern part of Sweden in fall of 2005. We rearranged our company to a much less profitable degree, but less stressful and with more fun and joyful work - to provide nutritional consulting and offering only natural, holistic products for animals and people. This way we feel to be more helpful too!
The pursuit of the dream now began...
And here I am, aiming for losing those 50kg (110 lbs.) and getting gradulally into top physical shape again, in order to feel good, to be healthy, and to be able to help my team in the tough parts of the challenging long distnce trails.
I created this blog as my online diary, where I can write and share my thoughts, my challenges and fight and all the ups and downs waiting ahead of this journey.
I feel it will help me to look over my shoulder when I´m down, to see what I have already acomplished and through sharing my thoughts, successes and fallbacks with it´s readers, I will stay highly motivated and focussed.
Your interactive comments to my blog entries will keep me inspired and motivated too, so please, feel free to comment on any of my entries! Your comments will be more than welcomed! :)
Thanks for letting me to share!
Happy Trails
