Peter Atkins has to withdraw from Badminton

Peter and Henny earlier this spring at Red Hills CIC***, where they were the only pair to ever achieve the time cross country, and where they broke the news to Eventing Nation of their intention to compete at the historic Badminton CCI**** Three Day Event.
Sadly, Peter had terrible news for Eventing Nation this morning, just the day before he was due to leave for England; in one of those silly accidents that can happen all too often and in the blink of an eye, Peter broke his leg which means obviously he will not be able to ride at Badminton after all.

 

Peter wanted to be sure I noticed the homemade splint of tree branches and vetwrap, he said the ER doc loved it! When I asked him if he was in pain, he answered “emotional pain.” At this point he thinks he’ll be out of commission for about 4-6 weeks, and has yet to make final plans as to what he’ll do next as he was currently being admitted but we will hopefully see this pair next at Luhmuhlen! Wishing you speedy healing, and we’ll bring you more news from the Run Henny Run camp as soon as we get it. Go Henny, and Go Eventing!
