- 50 mile endurance race! Well, not all races end as you had hoped. Trails were stunning. Ride extremely well run. Sometimes a 65 year old body just doesn't get with the program. Not our first 50 mile race and certainly not our last. Just a bump along the way to our 100. All journeys have bumps. This was our bump.
Dehydration is no joke...wishing you health and more beautiful rides!!
So glad you are you are recovering and not going to give up onwards and upwards 🥰
❤thank you for taking us along❤
Thank you for taking us on your journey, both the good and the bad. what an inspiration.
Prayers for continued recovery! Thank you for taking us along💫
Thank you for your concern. Delighted to have the company!
Wow! So glad you are ok. You have an amazing team behind you thank goodness. So enjoy your videos thank you for sharing ❤
I have the best team. Thanks for noticing. I love them dearly.
WOW! It was a shock to hear that at the end of your video! Happy you made it, and you have a wonderful family supporting you! I am also glad you have shared this detailed emergency details, this make us more aware of risks we could encounter while riding long hours. You are so young in spirit and mind, keep going!!!
Thank you for your kind words! We have most definitely done a lot of research on people/hydration/electrolytes in the past few months Will be ready for next season!
Whew!! So very glad you are going to recover! How terribly scary!! BIG HEALING HUGS 🤗🤗
Love your videos and look forward to more!
Thanks! Very happy to be able to continue and humbled by everyone’s response.
Good to hear that you are doing well.
My sister and I are going to try some introductory rides. I wouldn't call 25 miles an "endurance" ride. We are 64 and 66 years old.
It was fun and inspiring to find your videos. I think that you both handle those beautiful but spirited horses very well. I was watching in one of the videos the grey horse was hopping around and the rider did a great job of coping with it.
Ride well and take care of yourself.
I remember my first few introductory rides “they were the best of times- they were the worst of times!” Enjoy! Honestly, at 65 riding keeps me moving - slowly at times with lots of sore muscles but all in all, I am MUCH fitter than I would be without it!
Wow! That was a shocker and such a relief to know you're okay. You are an inspiration. You ladies are amazing. To push yourselves to such limits on horseback. Such respect for all your efforts and challenges met. Way to go. Much applause. Truly.
Oh Anna! Thank you. You always have so much encouragement for us!
Crooked in the saddle❤
OH My Gosh.. prayers for smooth recovery.
Glad you’re doing better and on the road to recovery!
oh my goodness, what a day!
It have gone so many different ways. I was honestly shocked. And waking up in such a serious environment like ICU is terrifying. 😊
my husband was given diuretics to lower his blood pressure and he was rushed in to hospital with a very high heart rate, the diuretics had washed all the potassium out. Glad you are recovering, take it easy
Good to know!
Oh my goodness! Listen to your body and don't push it. So very glad you are ok.
Omg so glad that you’re ok! I absolutely love your videos! Keep up the great work 🩷🩷🩷
Thanks!!!
I am so glad you are ok. Hugs, be good to your body and heal well.
I'm just a bit older than you - but so wish I could be doing that too. Only ever managed 30 miles here in the UK with my (sadly now long gone) Arabian. Good Luck
Thank you. I wish you could be riding too. I wish that for anyone who finds they are done before they “feel” they are done.
Holy cow! Glad you’re going to be ok!
I’m so sorry you went through that! You’re a true champion.
So blessed to have your brother❤.
I’m a brand new sub and am bingeing your channel today.
You’re so brave and I admire you!🎉
I am so glad you are OK!!
Yes, it was a tough lesson to learn but we are back on track now!
Wow I'm so glad you are ok!
I have had issues with electrolytes in the past that led to an er visit and one thing I found out is the popular sports drinks we buy usually have very little in the way of actual electrolytes, I started using products developed for ultra runners instead and have much better results
Thank you. So interesting you say this… I secretly suspect the commercial electrolyte drink I was taking as well… just not ready to say too much puvlically yet. I think it was a combination of the perfect storm but it’s not the first time I felt off after taking that brand. Also, I am watching ultrarunners videos like there is no tomorrow. Thank you for sharing.
I’m seriously interested in this sport.
How do the riders go pee? I drink a lot and have had three kids so I have to go every 45 minutes soooo idk how that would work. Squat on the trail?
Yep. The woods work just fine!
Oh wow! What an unexpected series of events! So glad to hear you are recovering well and that you will be back in the saddle soon. ❤️🩹
Very unexpected. Have lots of miles under my belt. Never expected this. Doing a ton of research and very grateful that it all worked out.
