I sure hope things are better for you. I hate those tough weeks - I've had several tough weeks in the past few months myself. Hope your foot is okay, I had a horse break my pinkie toe once, it was not fun (I also had a marching band competition the next day... and marched anyways...)

Thanks! It's all fine. A few boo-hoos later and life is back to normal. My foot didn't bruise and feels fine, too. Maybe we develop "calluses" on our toes that help against equine foot stomping! :0)

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 the lower levels. He is a 2008, 16'3 hand warmblood gelding. His Rheinland Pfalz-saar International (RPSI) name is Imperioso.
