Linzie Lindsay grew up riding horses in Washington State, and has been winning barrel racing awards since the age of twelve. She tells us about it this week on Healthy Critters Radio — starting with an answer to the question, “Is barrel racing a women-only sport?”
“No, it’s not, but in the professional rodeo scene, which is what most people know of, it appears to be that way because we have an association called the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association, and those are the members you see at rodeos. So, to the general public and to the world, it seems to be a women-only sport. And on the professional level of pro rodeo, it is. But there is so much more going on in barrel racing in general, and it’s for anybody, any age, any gender…it’s a true family sport if you want it to be one.”
