Bio
Paige Drobny, 41, was born in Bryn Mawr,
Pennsylvania, says she moved all over growing up.
She graduated from Virginia Tech in 1997 with her
B.S. in Biology and from UAF in 2008 with her M.S.
in Fisheries Oceanography. Before moving to
Fairbanks in 2005 for graduate school, she lived in
Vermont and was a fisheries biologist. “I
enjoy the outdoor lifestyle. I work as a fishery
biologist and help my husband, Cody Strathe, build
dogsleds for our company, DogPaddle Designs, during
the summer. Our mushing started in 2006 as a way to
explore the wilds of Alaska with no plan to ever do
any racing. We spent several years camping and
traveling with our dogs. In 2010, Cody and I
decided to give it a whirl and entered the GinGin
200 together…we had a blast, and suddenly we
were on the slippery slope. She and Cody have both
run the Yukon Quest and this year they will both
run the Yukon Quest and the Iditarod.
Paige Drobny, 38, was born
in Pennsylvania and says she was raised “all
over.” She graduated from Virginia Tech in
1997 with her B.S. in Biology and from UAF in 2008

moving to Fairbanks in 2005 for graduate school,
she lived in Colorado and was a fisheries

After finishing the Yukon Quest last year with a
happy and health team, Iditarod seemed like the
next logical step for someone with an addiction to
travelling by dog team. We’ll see where the
Iditarod Trail takes us and hopefully be back again
and again.” Paige lists her hobby as
“fish.”
