Woman to ride from New Forest to Newcastle

Posted on 28 May 2012 | 0 Responses

A brave 23-year-old woman has confirmed that she will be riding her equine from the New Forest in the south of England to Newcastle to raise money for the World Horse Welfare.

Nora Kragebakk, who was inspired into riding by the charity's fat scoring and weight management YouTube videos will be taking on this substantial challenge later in the summer.

She is hoping to not only to gain lots of money for the World Horse Welfare, but also to raise awareness of the importance of physical activity for both humans and equines.

The 330-mile trip will begin in July and Ms Kragebakk is anticipating it to take four weeks in all to complete.

She said she hopes people will be inspired to train their horses more and more.

"I'm doing it because I want to get people to realise how important it is to keep their horses in a good condition – not too skinny and definitely not too fat," she continued.
