Happy Cross Country Day!!! Goodness, the emotions around the barns today in Kentucky will be running high. Saturdays at a three-day are always full of extreme elation and ultimate disappointment, but the feeling of watching your teammates rock around challenging courses and come home safe is really unequalled. A lot of competitors will be getting their first taste of the team atmosphere this week, and that’s a really exciting new experience. Cross country begins with the CCI2* at 8:00am EST, our fearless leader is in fact the current leader in that division, Caroline Martin & Quantum Solace.
Make sure you read Visionaire’s NAJRYC Course Walk from yesterday, and check out Coach O’Connor’s challenging courses for both divisions. Good luck to everybody!!
