Florida Equine Athlete: September 2026

By Gina McKnight, Joyce Meyer, Melissa Greer PhD

In the September 2026 edition of the Florida Equine Athlete: Joyce Meyer talks about letting patience solve your problems and learn how to behave the same way when things are going well as when they aren't so good.Gina McKnight interviews Author, Catherine Ulrich Brakefield who is, a lifelong horsewoman and celebrated storyteller. Her work carries the unmistakable imprint of someone who has spent years listening closely - to history, to the land, to her horses, and to God. Her novels blend faith-driven storytelling with equine insight, creating worlds where courage, compassion, and grace rise from the everyday rhythms of life.Melissa Greer, PhD continues her PhD dissertation discussion Women Athlete and Entrepreneurs and begins Chapter 4 with Data Collection and Analysis discussing the start of the first research question of "Are Women Athlete Entrepreneurs and Women Business Entrepreneurs Successful?"Rachel Kosmal McCart, Equine Legal Solutions, advises to not get taken for a ride when buying a horse. She gives examples of horse sale fraud warning signs.Juliet Getty, PhD, Getty's Equine Nutrition, writes about Colostrum which is an overlooked issue for horse's gut health.Tina Spangler, TLC Barrel Racing and Horsemanship Clinics - discusses alleyway issues.There are two months (September and October) of barrel racing and roping dates for Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee. I strongly advise calling, to verify, the event(s) before hauling to make sure it is a go, if rescheduled; or, if have a location change. I do not always find out about cancellations, reschedules, etc. If I do find any information changes in time, I will update it on the barrel racing schedule of events link and/or the Roping Schedule of Events link for that specific week it is scheduled, at floridaequineathlete.com.
