Not-So-Speedy Dressage
From Endurance to Dressage
I have plenty going on that I want to write about, but it's really hard to do with all of the celebratory cacophony going off in my head. Today is the last day of school. Technically, yesterday was the last day for kids, but I have to go in for a meeting and then check out of my room. It's all really just a formality, but since I still have to make the 30 minute drive across town, it counts as a work day.
So until I hand over my keys and get that final signature, I can't focus on anything else! Have a great weekend!
14.5 more school days for us up in the PNW. Our extremely cold/icy/snowy winter threw us for a loop and we lost several weeks of school. SO, while our original end date was the 15th, it is now the 23rd. :( But, we're changing our school start times to 10min earlier (so an added hour of educational time per week) so we will be able to apply for waiver days if we get this sort of nasty weather again.

About the Writer and RiderI am a lifelong rider.
I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010. Welcome to my dressage journey. About Speedy GSpeedy went from endurance horse to dressage horse. After helping me earn a USDF Bronze medal in the summer of 2020, he is now semi-retired. Speedy is a 2004, 15'1 hand, purebred Arabian gelding. His Arabian Horse Registry name is G Ima Starr FA.
About IzzyIzzy was started as a four-year old and then spent the next 18 months in pasture growing up. I bought him as a six-year old, and together, we are showing at Second Level. He is a 2008, 16'3 hand warmblood gelding. His Rheinland Pfalz-saar International (RPSI) name is Imperioso.
