From an equestrian perspective, this past week has looked a lot different for me than from this time last year. I’m sure many of you can say the same! After over a year with nothing much to work towards and nowhere to go, it felt so nice to recently be able to get out and about not once but twice. First, all that hacking we’ve been doing in the off season paid off as my pony and I easily completed a hunter pace and had a blast doing so. Then a couple days later we had our first lesson back with our trainer in over a year! Little by little, things are getting back to normal.
Have you heard? We just launched an epic giveaway in partnership with SmartPak to get you all kitted out in rain/mud gear. For your chance to win over $400 worth of rain-ready gear, you’ll definitely want to check out this fun contest here.
