Emily Robinson, 16, is a tenth grader from Nenana, Alaska. She started going on training runs with her dad at the age of 4 and has been working ever since then to create her racing team - Robinson Racing Kennel. All the hard work has paid off and Emily is now racing with dogs that she raised from puppies. She won the Jr. Iditarod in 2022 and 2023, becoming the first female to win twice. Emily also won the 2022 Alpine Creek Excursion, the 2023 Willow 150, the 2023 Yukon Quest 80, the 2023 Willow Jr. 100, and the 2023 Knik 100. When not running dogs, Emily enjoys reading and playing the fiddle. After high school, she would like to continue racing and help her brother Stanley train for his races.
