I know I've made it hard by running for two charities this year but they are both worthy causes, and both need funding. Although many donate to the Riding for the Disabled Association in general, each individual group then has to fund themselves.

If you are unsure of which group to donate to, or do not have an emotional tie to one of the other, I would ask you to please split your donation in half and give half of your sponsorship to each.

Thank you

Every little bit counts - exercise as well as pennies!

Another 20 minutes on the cross trainer tonight, building it up day by day.

4.5 hours at Penniwells yesterday with the majority leading or side walking on lessons plus a bit of trotting.  It's been a long time since I ran a whole lap of the area but that's what happens when you are shadowing  able riders.

I love seeing the range of abilities. From games with the 4yr old to figure of 8's, 3 loop serpentine and bow ties with the saddle club.  To be honest it's testing me knowledge it's been so long since I've been in a schooling ring.

Apart from wet ragging to 2 ponies for the Windsor show the highlight of my evening was seeing a more confident rider canter using reins that they hold in one hand. Truely amazing.

Just giving and BT my donate pages will be set up soon and the blog layout will have contact details of both groups plus contact details for me if you want paper forms.

However ONCE I'VE FINISHED MY COURSE!! I am trying to keep telling myself but it is hard when I'm playing around on my phone in the evening.
