Alice Hirst

Tasmania has really turned on the weather over the past few weeks... and by 'turned on' I mean it has turned the water tap to full and then forgot about it so we've headed to warmer climes!

This month I was going to wrap up my last mainland trip and detail Sizzle’s preparation for the Melbourne CCI 2*. However, it was not meant to be ........

Currently I am relaxing in my truck, hearing my horses snort and eat. I’m listening to music, having just eaten nachos for dinner with two fellow Tassie eventers and friends ... this is my kind of paradise.

Some tricky courses in Tasmania leave Alice Hirst just happy to get around but the big boys are going well (if only Alice can remember where all the fences are!)

What a lovely Christmas and intense start to the New Year!

Alice Hirst's win at Colac was a good preparation for the 3DE at Lakes and Craters where things went with a bang on cross country (especially her air vest!)

Alice Hirst runs through the processes to prepare her horse for the 12 hour trip across the water and it seemed to work with a 1* win at Colac after getting off the boat!

This month’s blog is about everyday happiness. What is it? Everyday happiness is something totally different to life happiness. And for me, it’s a yellow rock

This month I decided that being an adult was far to hard. So I went back in time and got on my childhood pony, Sherbet, and played pony club games. And it was great.

My phrase of the month is 'Take a risk' I have decided. Go for it. Push the boundaries. See what happens when you do.  A little adrenalin never hurt anyone ..... even when it's snowing!
