Badlands Equine I'm an endurance rider with 20+ years experience as a saddle fitter. I currently represent Ghost Treeless Saddles.

I also host riding clinics in our indoor arena or on the obstacle course. I'm also representing the PEMF device Kloud by Centropix.

Black Friday sale from Centropix, the makers of the Kloud PEMF system! They're offering a package deal of a Mini, Maxi, the trolley cart, a Bubble system (personal PEMF wearable), and the Cocoon (room e-smog protection) for $6790. This is over $10k worth of items!
The Kloud PEMF was pivotal in my very fast healing from a broken hip, 5 ribs, and 4 vertebrae. I did a 25 miler at 2 months and am aiming for a 50 at 3.5 months.
The Kloud also helped my mare recover from a nasty surgery and she'll be going on the 50 as well!

Love my new saddle shaped chair! Much more comfortable against my thighs and it's going to be healthier long term for my posture in addition to helping me keep my back/core strength while I'm sidelined from riding. This was only $57 from Home Depot - delivered!

Some good firsts today! I scooped some p**p (did not try to move a wheelbarrow!), led Alamo to pasture (second time on that), put on paddock boots by myself, bumped up to 40 min sitting on the saddle stand alternating 5 min active sitting with 5 min posting or 2 point. Just need a safe horse to mount!

Ok, this is a little bit horses and a lot about healing and how the Kloud is playing a role. I was flung from my horse about a mile from the finish of a 25 mile ride (he ended up with a root tangling in his hind legs for several steps). I landed on my right shoulder and broke 5 ribs in 2 places each and had compression or minor breaks on 3 lumbar vertebrae. But as I was going down, my left leg was still over the saddle (not hung up, just that instantaneous of an event) putting me into a side split that I didn't do well when I was a gymnastics kid! So broken hip.
I now have 2 titanium rods in my hip and going through PT to strengthen and regain flexibility. It's slowed a bit by the ribs and vertebrae, but I have felt very little pain through the entire ordeal. I very much credit that to the Kloud which is helping my soft tissues heal fast and support the fractures. Ditching the walker and cane soon!
My husband brought my Mini to the hospital room where I could fold and position it under the shoulder/ribs or on top of the stabilized hip.
Once home, the best place for me has been a recliner. We set that up with the Maxi so I can run it first thing in the morning, during the day when I rest, and in the evening/before bed. My sleep numbers aren't quite as good as before the injury (which was also a credit to PEMA) but a very good normal. Makes sense, I don't like sleeping on my back!
I've had great support for PEMF/PEMA from professionals in the hospital and post release, so really glad word is getting out there. I truly would not want to be healing from these injuries without my Kloud

I think I'm learning more about my injuries from every professional! Best overall view came from the wonderful Siiri Berg during our first PT session today since she's looking at me overall, not just focused on the hip break. I knew there was some rib involvement as well as vertebrae. I thought 2 ribs but it's actually 5 ribs with 2 breaks each. And L1-L4 each were impacted.
Really astonishing that I feel very little of this! I guess my body was in good shape and everything else is doing its best to support the fractures. I even got 76 sleep score last night. I'm off prescription pain killers, just 2 aspirin a day. I think the Kloud PEMF/PEMA gets a lot of credit for supporting all the surrounding tissue too.
I'll stick with the walker a while longer so I font stress ribs and vertebrae in any asymmetrical way. But I do have a saddle stand sitting in the living room so I can start working on my riding position.

Bandit springs was fabulous! Seriously going to miss Jannelle and family managing this ride! They've done an amazing job for Mustangs to the Rescue and the endurance community 18 years I think.
I'm looking forward to riding with Jannelle Wilde next year!
We took Hank and Csavannah for the night ride on Friday. This was Csavannah's first ride of the season after a suspensory injury Jan 1. Lots of time off then slow rehab working through her crankiness as well. Bandit is not the easiest first ride back but this time I made sure she had pour-in pads on all 4 cuz she hates the rocks. Wow, she had a great time.
Our group of 4 (Stace, Tara Quinn , Siiri Berg ) let us lead often to make sure the horses in better shape (2 100 milers!) didn't pull her too fast.
Sadly Tara's horse stumbled and dinged a heel bulb enough to pull. We got to see one of the mustang bands and this was Csavannah's first night ride. She did awesome!
Saturday Stace decided to run 10 miles with Siiri, who is training for a 100k run. On foot!! Then we took Csavannah home and brought Merlin.
Stace was a bit sore from running and Lynn Atcheson had decided to give Texas a break so she rode Hank with me and Merlin. Hank was on his best behavior and Lynn clicked well with him. I got her dumped by ramming my helmet into a low dead branch which scared Hank. Good thing she's a great athlete and bounced back into the saddle for the rest of the ride.
We had another close encounter with a couple bachelor stallions. One really nice one that I'd adopt if I ever saw him available!
Both rides we had to push to keep moving and avoid an OT pull, but we made it! Csavannah continues to surprise me how much she enjoys endurance so hopefully on to her next 50 for year 9 towards a decade award.
Merlin is also prepping for his first 50 at Midnight Rider. Bandit will be excellent help and he's getting better and better dealing with other horses around him.
Thank you to Stace, Tara, Siiri, and Lynn for riding with me and helping me take care of my ponies. And huge thanks to Jannelle and all of ride management, vets, volunteers, and all our great friends at the ride!

Beautiful photos from Monika Paterson Photography at the Cariboo Gold Rush Express ride in BC. Stace is riding Katrin Levermann's horse Rudy (Double Bey Latte) and I'm riding Buddy (Double Exposure PW). I'm riding in a special Ghost Torino which was my inspiration for the saddle I'm donating to the 2024 AERC National Championships at the Outback Station.
