Location: WA | Can we have a new award at races for being either one spot out of a check or the very bottom of the D? I would win a lot of money or cool stuff that way. We are usually in the 2D, which I try not to complain about, but sheesh, a check once in a while would be great!
ETA: I really am just joking around. I seem to have the worst luck, lol.

| I know some runs do have crying hole prizes, or worst luck, the problem is sponsorship, attracting the membership.
I don't go to make money, I go for fun, to better myself, visit and learn something new, if I win money or prizes then that is a bonus. |

Haha, I go to have fun too. God knows if I went for money I would have quit long ago!! For the series I am running in right now I have had one 14.9 (7th out of 180 riders, last rider in 1D, one out of check in 1D, .005 too fast for a check in 2D), and the rest 15.0s and 15.1s. I wil be one or two out of a check in 2D or at the bottom of 2D (like very last slot like yesterday). I think I need the biggest loser award for the series haha! |

Location: PNW | Most disheartening race OF MY LIFE: I was .002 TOO FAST and missed the 3D saddle. The ONE and ONLY time my consistent top of the 3D gelding decides to shave some time and pop into the 2D. Jerk. |

Haha! I totally get it! I think I should keep a journal of how many different ways we can fail to get a check and by how many hundredths or thousandths. Lol. |
