We lost our beautiful Part Bred Arab, Buddy to Equine Grass Sickness on the 16th May 2023. He left his stable companion Hakki - a mini Shetland Pony. To raise funds for research into EGS, Hakki has started his own health programme - Stable to 5k and we will be doing his first 5k race on the 19th August starting and finishing at the EGS Show. The humans, Abi my daughter and I will continue to do a 10k, half Marathon and full Marathon in the next 12 months. #welostourbuddytoEGS

I was sorry to read of your loss. What a horrid and indiscriminate disease. We lost my daughter's pony to it over 20years ago, awful. I don't doubt you will have some lovely memories of your horse, take them with you on your runs.

How sad, I'm so sorry to hear this. You will take Buddy on your runs as Runningroni says, picture him running free beside you xx
