A good 6 miles today.

6 miles, still not the distance I should be getting but with riding 4 or 5 days a week it is getting Sadie into pretty good shape.   Today I asked her to cross the road where we usually turn around and we did a couple miles of work in newly worked summer fallow field. 

 I love this little mare,  it was safe but not nice footing with some big clods.  Sadie does this awesome careful, balanced slow canter when the footing is uneven like this.    I might have to get my butt out and do some serious conditioning the next few years to not be holding her back.  Sire and grand sire raced on the track so she is bred for athletic potential.
