To The Gallop!!!

I rode Ollie for 6 1/2 miles today. 2 miles (total) of it was galloping and fast, fast cantering. we went 3/4 mile straight at the gallop!! He loves it. I am deciding weather to pursue endurance, or show ring type stuff for him. I am torn apart, because he has outstanding conformation, which would make him a winner in the show ring, but I think that he would enjoy endurance more. Even if I choose not to go the endurance route, I think I am still going to do a 15 miler with him next April with my Natural Horsemanship trainer, Mrs. Tia. 

Here is the sweaty boy after 15 minutes of cooling down.

  1. That's great! I'm super happy for you and your new steed :p I'm hoping to have my own horse soon. It may be sooner then I think :) There is a new horse coming to the farm I ride at. He is a 15h Bay Quarter horse, that is a supposedly an awesome hunter jumper. He fits everything I had on my list, I'm really excited! Crossing my Fingers! Lol
