Riding Outside Your Comfort Zone with Will Grant – Adulting with Horses
Yeah, we don't do interviews but for this bonus episode of Adulting with Horses we had to make an exception. Will Grant, Mongol Derby Rider and Long Rider who just published his book, The Last Ride of the Pony Express: My 2,000 Mile Horseback Journey Into the Old West talks with us about his adventures, what goes into riding the Pony Express trail, and why it's important to ride outside your comfort zone. Will Grant currently lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he’s a writer for Outside magazine. His work has also appeared in Bloomberg Businessweekand he was previously the Action Sports editor at VICE. Since graduating college, he has broken in horses at a Colorado ranch, apprenticed under legendary horse trainer Jack Brainard, cowboyed in Texas, raced the Mongol Derby, a nearly 900 mile horse race in Mongolia, and ridden horses on every continent but AntarcticaFind him:Instagram @willgrantofthewestPurchase his book: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/will-grant/the-last-ride-of-the-pony-express/9780316422307/?lens=little-brownThank you for being a little weird with us, horse girl!

My name is Heather.I stepped away from horses as a teen due to anxiety and regretted it ever since. Now I’m back but things are a little different now. I’m a mother, I’m less flexible, and I’m a lot more nervous. The biggest difference? I’m following my passion despite lacking confidence. Join me as I talk about all those things we think but don’t say out loud.
I have been blogging about my personal journey on the ground and in the saddle since 2016. You can visit my latest posts here:
