In which Farley gets ridden
| May 4, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Farley looked a bit shocked as I pulled her out of pasture. Since she was doing a fine job of walking herself (with a little naughty “extra” movement here and there) I decided *I* didn’t need to do any more handwalking than what I happened to feel like on a daily basis. Usually once per […] more
Elyte update

The electrolyte update: I tried S!caps for the first time during the half marathon last Sunday. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are really easy to take, even without water. They travelled well with me during the race in a ziplock next to my sweaty skin, no worse for wear. My electrolyte arsenal at […] more
We’ll give her a B on gaits

I finished my half marathon. I wouldn’t have passed the vet check at an endurance ride if I was a horse. Unless the human equivalent of a trot out is a brisk walk. Or maybe a C? I’m not significantly sore and if I were an endurance horse, my owner would be pleased how I […] more

Excuse the short, probably riddled with errors post today. Add “one-handed typing” to the list of annoying thins to do one handed. The fracture isn’t serious. Not displaced, on the radius near the elbow. My fingers, which looked like fat balloons yesterday are now only slightly sausage like. Thanks to copious amounts of ibuprofen. Hoping […] more
I get brought down….

…by a golden retriever. Yep. A fractured radius later, I can officially say I’m getting old. Doing sprints on the track. Reed decides he’d rather be with me than matt and runs toward me. matt is calling him thus my plan was to totally ignore reed and continue running. Thus a 70 pound dog hit […] more
