One thing I have proven over and over again to myself is that I can do anything I put my mind to.
About 10 years ago I ran a couple of marathons only a year and a half after starting the couch to 5k program.
Barrel racing. running. horseback riding. training.
Meet Nicole
About 6 years ago I was stressed at work! Working long hours away from my family; I needed some sort of outlet to find balance and peace. As a birthday present, I rediscovered my childhood love for horses by taking a few riding lessons. I always loved horses, but owning my own horse seemed so far-fetched and out of reach. The more lessons I took, the more I realized that this was not just a passion but my calling. After a couple years of lessons with different trainers, I was encouraged to start participating in playdays (little local events with various riding patterns). After that, I was hooked and wanted to start Barrel Racing!

At 40 years old, I purchased Magic as my first horse. Magic is an ex-lesson horse that was just a little too much for lessons. Her speed and energy was a little much for some. My love and connection with her was instantaneous. Hard work, growing our bond and working together has won us 2 buckles and a little cash over the past year. While neither of us are the youngest or fastest, we work hard and push ourselves on the daily. Tim Notke popularly said, “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard!”. When we started racing, people looked at us and didn't see anything worth giving a second look; now, they are taking that second look. While Magic may not be the horse to take me all the way, she is my heart horse and has taught and given me so much. Though she is older than most of her competition, she still shows up for me every time and gives it her all!
NICOLE's "Rise"
Barrel Racing
Tell me something I can't do, then watch me relentlessly pursue my passion and show that it is possible. Fear is not something I acknowledge! I don't stop until I'm finished! I hate to lose! I fight for what I believe in! I love my family and friends! I will stop at nothing to help others and succeed at my own goals.

My husband has always called me a tornado. It would be too long to explain why, but let's just say, “We tear it up and I AM the storm!!!”
