Riding Somewhere New

This is a short snippet of what happened on the Friday 17th July 2020!

Another session was had with J and we did something different. Instead of going into the school or out on a hack as I had been expecting we went out and rode in the field that has lots of jumps and cross country set up in it. J got on first and rode Winnie round as I watched. I was really nervous because I'd never ridden in a field like this before. 

But after J took the edge off of Winnie for me, I got on. It was different riding in the field. I could definitely feel Winn was finding it harder where the field was on a slight incline. She had the work hard to keep trotting uphill and I felt good knowing that I was helping her get fitter. Although I'm not sure who was more tired afterwards, Winnie or me.  

But it was fun and I definitely enjoyed it. Hopefully, after a few more times doing the same thing Winnie's butt will start getting stronger!
