Cindy Gallea, 56, grew up on a farm in Minnesota where she experienced the pleasure of the outdoors and the good feeling of interacting with animals. She began mushing in 1987 and moved to Montana in 1990 to mush dogs, enjoy the beauty of the State and for work. A graduate of St. Olaf College with a BS in Nursing in 1973 and from the University of Washington with a Master's in Nursing in 1990, she now has been a nurse practitioner for 17 years. "I have always loved animals, the out of doors, and being active. Iditarod provides all of these things. I run Iditarod because it challenges me physically, mentally and emotionally and because it moves me spiritually. It is a gift from the universe." Cindy has two adult sons, Jim (and Iditarod veteran) and Brian.
