Horseback riding's not a sport?
You lift weights, I lift water buckets.
You run 1 mile, I ride 10.
You work with a team, I work with a 1200 pound animal that I have to communicate with, an animal who doesn't understand words
You have 4 quarters, 2 halves, to show your competitors what you've got.
We've got 10 minutes.
When you fall down you fall a couple inches. We fall 5 or more feet.
Your sport is one season. Ours is all year long, even in the bitter cold.
Who's that athlete now?
(Sorry its a bit longer, but it is the best quote ever. I live by it )
