Just hang on…
| March 12, 2012 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
The final is tomorrow and I’m frantically catching up on my studying so that I can pass this block. I had a BLAST at the convention and I have so much to share with you – stuff I learned from the seminars, products and vendors that I’m in love with, and much more. So hang […] more

Blog round up 2/27/12

….with commentary as usual. This guy always has GREAT things to say. 99% of the stuff he says here about moving up levels in eventing applies to moving up distance in endurance. If you are an LD rider and you are thinking about 50’s, or are contemplating a 100 – read this article. Fatigue […] more
