Hi ladies!
I'm back, a little sunburned and a little saddle sore but back and happy

. I spent over 5 1/2 hours in the saddle with Chip, my favorite horse, and a good friend. We rode a trail I haven't been on out through the woods, up past the Hatteras lighthouse, back out to the beach, down the beach to our regular trail and back to the barn. It was lots of fun. For someone who goes months without riding and then jump in with both feet - I have to admit that I rock

. The kettlebells really help too. That is the only workout that has ever really improved my riding. My seat bones will be sore tonight though. A little time in the saddle always makes me happy - its like climbing or whitewater - it doesn't matter what is going on, riding makes me smile.
Jane ~ How are you liking P90X?
Alisha ~ How was your hike?
Tricia ~ That sounds like a great run! You know your are working if you have to walk at intervals towards the end.
Cindi ~ If you are slow, then you rock even more in my book! I use the fact that I am slow as an excuse not to run more miles - it would take to long

I'm off to take a shower because I'm a little aromatic. You know you stink when the dogs sniff you and start to rub up against you...
