Finishing the world's longest and toughest horse race
has filled me with deep feelings of accomplishment
and gratitude. People say it is brave to go to Mongo-
lia and take on such a challenge. But perhaps the brav-
est part was actually leaving that breathtaking land
and its beautiful horses and people behind at the end.
Reaching my goal after feeling so dangerously close to
my limits has fueled me with an immense confidence
and excitement about what other mountains might be
there to climb.
Everest, anyone?
