With her husband Brian Harder, Dina won the Sunlight Duo pro division in 2007 (You Can Sleep When You're Dead). During that race she skinned about 21,000 feet; she hasn't come too close to that since. She actually tried to cash the giant check her and Brian were given on the podium at several bank branches in the valley. It was to no avail. Other than giving some tellers a good laugh.
When there's no snow, Dina is a competitive road bike racer. All year-long she's a freelance writer.
She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in June 2006.
Her favorite food during endurance events is a McDonald's double cheeseburger with Big Mac sauce.
She gets more blisters on her feet than anyone on the planet.
