“If you look at any field, whether it’s in bus

“If you look at any field, whether it’s in business or sports, the best of the best all have one thing in common: they are students and always learning. If you are a good student you will never truly ‘lose’ a competition. One of two things will happen when that competition is over: either you’ve won or you’ve learned something, and if you’ve learned, you haven’t lost. You need to always have that mindset because success tends not to be a great teacher. Failure is a much better teacher. Accepting and utilizing that is a quality of a good student.” - Ian Millar

Little Milja was a rock star for her first field trip! Huge thank you to Cassidy Hageman for giving her such a confidence-building experience—it’s so important for the youngsters. Really excited about this little mare, and can’t wait to get her in the show ring next year.

Playing catch up on some show results! We had a super successful show at Dressage, By Chance? at the end of July. Rhonda VanLowe’s Escritor HGF was High Score Second Level on Saturday—really proud of this boy for his good effort after being out of the show ring for a year.

Sierra Stewart’s Furst of All was a superstar, winning First Level Test 2 with a career high score for me of 80.286%. 🤯
He was First Level High Score, and Professional High Score of the show.

Huge thank you to Rhonda and Sierra, for allowing me to show their super horses! And thanks Michele and team for a wonderful show, as always.

Dressage at Lexington is always one of my favorite

Dressage at Lexington is always one of my favorite shows of the year, and we had a great showing! Thank you VADA, Bettina and everyone involved in putting on such a big show—great job as always. I wasn’t entirely convinced I was going to be able to ride at this show—I got COVID a couple of weeks ago, and it really hit me hard. I wasn’t able to do much riding until Tuesday of this week.

Sierra Stewart’s Furst of All was a rock star, winning both of his classes on a 70% and 72%, and winning First Level High Score for Saturday.

Grace Lotsikas did her first show with my Wachenheim and did a super job, winning 4 out of 5 classes (second in the fifth class) with scores up to 67% at Second Level. They were also Second Level Reserve Champion in the SHAC.

Lucy Tidd was Reserve Champion in the GP Challenge, and fourth in the FEI Musical Freestyle Challenge.

My Hans won his FEI Musical Freestyle class on Friday on just under 70%, I scratched him from his other class and we had a nice schooling ride instead.

Jessie Ginsburg and Vodie had great schooling session on Saturday, chipping away at the GP work.

Huge thanks as always to my sponsors @customsaddlery / @catesaddles

Last but not ever least, immense gratitude to the amazing Cassidy Hageman who kept everyone going at home, doing her usual wonderful job. She also busted her butt keeping everyone going while I was out sick for six days with COVID. I could not do this without her!

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.
