Tina Lund: My hero

I have chosen Tina Lund as my hero, because when I started getting interested about horses and when I started riding, I really began noticing how good and professional she was. After I had gotten a bit better at riding I began to start training cause I wanted to get as good as her, and be as good a jumper as her. I love watching Tina Lund in the TV and every time I see her doing something new, I want to learn the same thing and then I train. My first time I got acquainted with Tina Lund was in the television when she was at a jump competition. Her jumps were so amazing performed and that just got my attention that I wanted to learn how to jump with my horse.

A quote from Tina: The first time I sat on the back of a horse, I was 9 years old. I can clearly remember the feeling of happiness. I do not think my horse happiness could be greater. But that could it, shortly after the first time I jump on the back of a pony. A single leap over a very low hurdle - yes, the boom was hardly clear of the indoor arena floor. The sensation of speed that hover over the obstacle and the personal victory, it was to implement what was then a huge and daunting challenge. It's been great for me ever since.
