Riding horses has always been something that I am passionate about. It is a place where I can escape from the world to put all of my emotions into something I love. I have been riding for 9 years and have been showing for 5 years. Riding is not an easy sport as some people believe it to be, riding takes determination and passion. Being an equestrian means being tough and a fighter while being graceful. Riding takes dedication and hard work, but it is all worth it for doing something you love. This year I had the amazing experience to compete in IEA (Interscholastic Equestrian Association) National Finals! But i wasn't just the experience at Nationals that was so amazing, it was the incredible journey that brought me there. Over the years riding has meant so much to me and I always have had the determination keep pushing forward. But I haven't always been appreciated for my handwork around the barn or the hours I have spent just caring for the horses because I love to. I have never really had a coach who believed in me until Spring of 2016 when a new trainer came to our barn. Megan Taylor is a coach that believed in my and wanted to push me to be a better rider. My friend Brooke was has always been a strong supporter of me, also was so thankful that Megan became our coach. Just knowing that someone believes in you so much can make all the difference in a person’s life. I have been showing in IEA at Moss Creek Equestrian Center for 4 years. IEA is a showing program for
I believe that dirt bike riding is one of the best hobbies. One of the first reason is because of the physical exercise from this sport. Another reason is because riding and racing brings families together and you can hang out with friends. Lastly dirt bike riding is for all people of all ages, races, and genders.
A mother of a gay student that faced bullying stated in an article, that anyone who has “‘’hate in their hearts’” should accept people with differences because they are “‘going to be who they are’” (James, Boy Assaults Gay Student as Cellphone Captures Attack). In a perfect society, everyone would accept each other and not judge others based on appearance or social status. However, today many people still face the problem of acceptance. Harper Lee’s novel, To Kill A Mockingbird, illustrates how others can learn to be accepting from the characters in the novel. Scout leaves her naïve childhood behind and changes to into an accepting young adult through
The symbol is fire. The fire used by Wiesel represents death and one's dream and represents the evil of the Germans. Wiesel wanted to tell the readers why he wrote the title of the novel in the night. Wiesel said the evening experience "made my life become a long night and was sealed for the seven-time". The author here expressed the cruelty of the Germans.
This exciting, relatively new winter sport allows dirt bike riders to go from dirt to snow and back again. If you like dirtbiking than you will love timber sledding.Riders can enjoy snow biking when a Timbersled system is installed on a dirt bike.
Braaaaaap! Braaaaaaap! Ricky Charmichael takes the lead! He made the pass in the air over the 80 foot triple. Something that I love to do more than anything in the world is motocross. Motocross is racing over rough ground on specially strengthened motorcycles.
I believe that true equestrians are a special kind of people, they look out for each other and really want the best for each other. As I look back on the many people that have helped and guided me over the years, I too want to do that for the equestrians in my life now. I strive to be a positive, motivated rider who is always there to help. I think having the privilege of caring for my own horses has taught me a lot about responsibility.
The Ride is the story of the heinous and gruesome murder of ten year old, Jeffrey Curley, a case that is familiar to many in the Massachusetts area. The book works its way from the grisly crime to the years afterward. It focuses on the family of Jeffrey, heavily weighted on the life of Cambridge Firefighter Bob Curley, Jeffrey’s father. Charles Jaynes and Salvatore Sicari, both from Jeffrey’s neighborhood were convicted of the murder. Within this essay I will demonstrate from The Ride the relationship between reporting and suffering that may have been brought on for the crime victims of this case, the relationship between the victim profiles and the victim family profiles, the role in which the family may have played in the

I’m Hailey Fisher and becoming a therapeutic riding instructor is my dream career. I have always enjoyed the companionship of horses and I want to help people some day and I feel like this is the best way I can have both subjects in my life.
I began horseback riding at age four, and my equestrian pursuits have not only shaped who I am as an individual, but have kept me grounded. Working as a groom to afford riding lessons instilled a work ethic within me that has contributed tremendously to my academic successes. Rescuing a horse at a young age, and caring for him no matter the circumstance, has given me a strong sense of commitment that translates to all avenues of my life. Besides shaping my character, being entirely responsible for my horse throughout college urged me to find a productive balance in my life. Learning to make time for hobbies and other activities outside of academics has greatly improved my overall well-being, and is a lesson that will be invaluable as I pursue
I was able to see girls run the 400 meter dash and my coach told me while sitting in the bleachers that I won’t have to be watching my race because I will be running on the track next year. After state, AAU track was right around the corner. My goal for the summer was to beat my personal record which was a 1:01.02. For AAU we only had practice twice a week and the rest of the days we were expected to practice on our own. My AAU track coach reminded me that I can count on him if I ever needed anything and he believes in me if nobody else does. Having a good support system from my coach and teammates makes the process easier for achieving
“ It is also the only sport which involves two athletes: horse and rider. The relationship and mutual respect built up between the two is key to a successful partnership.” (International Equestrian Federation). Horseback riding is yourself along with a thousand pound animal underneath you. You and your horse have to constantly communicate with each other at all times but it’s not the communication you would think. You need to communicate
I have come to love bicycles in the course of the past year. I am especially fond of mountain bikes, including my own. Riding it opens up a whole new world of opportunities and challenges for me. I am still fairly fresh to the whole mountain biking scene, so I push myself to become better with more experience. Riding is an outlet; it is something I can channel pent up energy through. I love the sport because it is a full body, soul, and mind experience that affects all five of the senses.
“All eighth graders to the SLV track” called the muffley voice over the loudspeaker. As soon as I heard this voice I shuddered with great anxiety and fear. How could I possibly race while I was shaking and nervous? “Come on, the race is about to start!” shouted my friend Addy. The smell of burnt rubber tarred my lunges and made it hard to breath, but as I looked farther from the track I saw myself standing among the great Redwoods and Oaks. Trees that would tower over me with wisdom and age. The sound of cheers wiped away my vision while I slowly walked toward the track. There was nothing that could stop me from getting off this horrid track and running into a mirage of beauty.
