PVDA Ride For Life

This past weekend I took Bobbin Kreider’s Allelujah to compete at the PVDA Ride For Life at Prince Georges Equestrian Center in Upper Marlboro, MD. “Lulu” made her new Mom proud, placing in all her classes and getting a 1st and a 2nd on Sunday. Lulu was Reserve High Score of the show with a score of 71.786% in Training Level Test 2. She also won the Oldenburg GOV High Score Award. Congratulations to her owner, Bobbin Kreider!

CDCTA Show

Lulu at CDCTA
Despite the unseasonably warm weather, a great time was had at the CDCTA show at Morven Park on May 1st and 2nd. I competed Shari Glickman’s lovely coming 4 year old GOV mare, Allelujah (aka “Lulu”) and Marsha Mason-Thies’s wonderful Holsteiner gelding, Rulet (aka “Rudy”). Marsha competed Rudy as well.

Rulet

Lulu did very well at Training Level and received qualifying scores for both the BLM Finals and the GAIG championships, including a 70% at TrainingLevel Test 4 on Sunday. Rudy was a superstar his first time out at Second Level Test 4, scoring a 63% and 62% and placing second in both of his classes with me. Marsha rode him to a 62% in Second Level Test 1 for third place. Great job!

Pretty jazzed to run my first road race in close t Pretty jazzed to run my first road race in close to ten years. A series of injuries have constantly set me back (e.g.: shoulder surgery 2014 x2, 2018, 2020, 2022, and hip surgery in 2016 and 2019), so I haven’t stayed sound enough to train and complete a race at any distance, much less this distance (half marathon). But I did it! And I even crushed my goal of running under two hours, completing in 1:52:37–a personal best for me, beating out the 1:53:36 I ran ten years ago.  I’m for sure no elite runner, but I love the physical and mental challenge of running.

Great start to the season last weekend at Loch Moy Great start to the season last weekend at Loch Moy! Hans was a rock star Saturday in the Prix St. Georges, winning the class and High Score PSG with a 71.765%. 🖤 Sunday he became slightly unhinged by the cross country clinic going on at the showgrounds, but still managed nearly a 66% in his first go at I-1.  Huge thank you to Cassidy Hageman for all of her help over the weekend!

“'You become. It takes a long time. That's why i “'You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand.”

Happy 29th birthday to my Mouse. 23 years together. So many fun memories. I love seeing you so happy in retired life. 🐭💕
