Fifteen year old Isobel (Izzy) Lund used to love riding. That is, until a tragic accident in a showjumping competition at the age of fourteen caused her to become fearful of riding again.
In order to help break Izzy out of her psychological shell, I...
Today is Pony Camp day, and my parents and I were going.
I wear a long sleeved red shirt with a black sleeveless jacket, along with my pink Bright Fields jumper, and red jodhpurs, western horseshoe necklace and earrings. I'm also wearing a black cowgirl hat.

I wander around with my cousin, chatting about what had happened last night.
We see Derek's car pull up in the driveway and Pin and Sam get out.
I go over to Pin and hug him. "Hey, are you okay?" I ask when we pull back. He nods, smiling at me.
"I'm fine. Are you going on the Hack today?" Pin asks me.
"Yes, but also Sam asked me to help Marcus give a jumping demonstration to the kids," I reply.
Ted says, giving me a tight smile, "Well, it's great to see you back in the saddle, Izzy."
Pin tells him, "You should've seen her yesterday, dad. Izzy and Pegasus were amazing in the arena."
"I'll bet," Ted says.
Pin and I slide our arms around each other's waists as head to where he's supposed to be working near Firefly's stall, the both of us chatting. I'd told Pin about last night.
I watch Pin and Ted work for a few minutes before I say, "I'd better get going. I'll see you later, Pin?" Pin nods and sends me a smile as I leave to get Pegasus.
I canter Pegasus around the arena to warm him up as Marcus addresses the crowd, on Monty. Even my and Howard's parents were there, my cousin too.
"Alright, everyone, listen up! This is Australian Junior Champion, Isobel Lund, and her beautiful horse, Pegasus! They're going to give the demonstration," Marcus calls as I canter my horse in and around the arena, hearing excited gasps.
There were three vertical jumps set up.
I canter Pegasus around to the fence on my far left. Upon beating it, he leaps smoothly over it and lands, earning us a burst of applause. I turn Pegasus towards the middle jump as I spot Zoe and Rosie join us. Pegasus leaps over the middle fence with ease.
