June 11, 2009

I'm back, I promise. I've been off losing my mind for the past few months, and it's been fun living the high life of a lunatic, but since intellectualism and reason still reigns supreme in my brain, I can't get lost in insanity for too long. In other words, I've been distracted, but now I'm back.

Nic is doing great, but the real thing to talk about is that oft-revered yet more-than-frequently-overlooked aspect of training: the lunge lesson. For the past couple months, that's what I've been off doing. Still riding Nic of course, yet indulging in lunge lessons at the same time. I'd say improvements in my riding and training have taken place. I decided that although I'm fairly effective in the saddle, I hate how my legs are and definitely feel some weaknesses in my position there. I wish to attain a deeper seat, which I feel is totally not connected to Nic. Things have been much improved by the attention.
