Congratulations AareneX! Her guess of 8:50 came closest to my ride time of 8:55 without going over!
AareneX - shoot me an e-mail with your address and I'll mail your prize. Use mnfaubel@gmail.com
The ride went well. I rode with Karen's comments in mind and everything went well. Farley was incredible - I finally have a horse conditioned for a strong 50! Such a good feeling. The vet said at the exit check that Farley was one of the soundest horses she saw at the finish.
Full story to come! (probably post tomorrow...)
