Welcome to my first blog and I want to get straight into the exciting stuff :) This year's BADMINTON HORSE TRIALS media passes came through in the post today! I don't know if you even know what Badminton Horse Trials is, but I have been watching this event on TV since I was 5 years old and finally went for the first time last year on nothing less than a MEDIA PASS! This meant wearing an embarrassing fluorescent jacket and carrying a huge camera around and getting so close I nearly got trampled (which my loving boyfriend kindly took a photo of). This is a huge deal for me and I am just as excited and just as likely to tear up as last year. It's been about 3 years since I had to put down my horse, Butterly, and I haven't really ridden since but my heart is still there :) and one day, when I can afford it, I'll get back on the horse :)
So here's to Badminton Horse Trials 2010! And the sneaky opportunity attending this year will give me to scope out the track for the ROLEX HORSELESS TEAM EVENT later in the year (a team running event we're entering - if you're going, see you there:)
Feel free to share any sporting event you're looking forward to this year :)love Ellie x
