As the first Ocala training sessions wrap up, somehow Eventing Nation found it’s way onto an email list in which our good friend Sinead sent out an update about her lessons with Mark. This is good news considering that Sinead’s better half, Meg, was a massive EN slacker today but don’t tell Meg I said that. Annie will be along later tonight with your morning links and as always, thank you for your continued support of Eventing Nation.

Tate was a super star at our first training session of 2012. Mark and I had our usual little “communication discussion” in the beginning of day 1 but after that we were sailing! This time last year it was day 3 of training sessions before I thought we were all on the same page (all of us being myself, Mark and Tate… who sometimes has a completely different opinion than Mark and I).
It really only took one discussion to get things rolling. Day1 was flat and day 2 we did a little flat and our first jump since Burghley! Tate was feeling great and jumped full of confidence, which is nice to feel after the massive effort he put forth at Burghley.
Mark was very pleased with the road that we are on. But he was very clear in saying it’s good and it’s good for this time of year but we need to keep moving forward on the track to be our best by London. I’m game 🙂
