Ive had one hell of a mental weekend, Saturday i swam a mile in my first open water swim challenge managed to complete it in 35:08!! Pretty proud of that!
Sunday saw us head off to Keysoe for the BE90! 😃
After a lovely (not) 3:30 alarm 🙈 I can confirm btw that it is light at that time! We arrived at keysoe with an unimpressed Beanz after his 4am bath!
Dressage:
A nice sweet test, right things in the right places with minimal spooks left us mid field with a 35.5 I was pleased with how he performed 🙂 hes seems to be starting to get it all now!
Showjumping: bit sad to say I think our demon is rearing his ugly head again 😩 neither of us appear to be enjoying this phase atm but none the less he nearly kept his feet out the way with just 2 down on a related distance - lots to work on, we need to find the showjumping love again!
Xc: M.A.C.H.I.N.E!!! 😍 stonking clear inside the time yet again! Such a dude! ❤️ He just feels awesome in this phase wasnt bothered by any of the combinations or the trakenher! I absolutely hate trakenhers so for him to put a smile on my face while sailing over it is just amazing.... he is simply amazing!!
The poles were as usual costly but we still ended up a respectable 18th, that's another top 20th finish for us, in fact he hasn't dropped out of the top 20 since we started our BE career! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Sadly my lorry broke on the way home
so got sent off to the mechanics yesterday morning, driving it without power steering is no fun!! which meant my plans of a forest trip with my main man were nearly scuppered but a friend offered to pick me up, which meant for the first time this year he got to leave the yard for something other than a trip to the vets!! He was totally loving life!!
Next up for Beanz is RC sj qualifiers and then LD 2 in July as my sisters wedding is in 3 weeks so its all systems go for that atm! In the mean time we need to sort our sj out not sure whats going on there neither of us are feeling the love, hopefully we will find it again soon!!
