Lunging Jericho

Had another wonderful ride at the forest today!

Had horses run up from behind and Jerry was all cool. My friend had her young arab, that has only been ridden a max of 4 times, so Jericho had to play big brother, and he did a fabulous job.


We did a 10km ride but was a hard 10km with vertical hills and heavy sand. Jerry managed it well considering.. so will be lungeing all week to continue to prepare for the 20km ride this coming Saturday at Counties.... eekk!! Will be my very first endurance ride ever so am being drilled on paces and monitoring and control of his heart rate during the ride.


Got some photos of him being lunged yesterday (Saturday and have posted below). He is being such a good boy!
