Episode Synopsis

Today’s guests are Kristján Árni Birgisson and Þórgunnur Þórarinsdóttir — two riders based at the farm Nautabú in Skagafjörður, Iceland. Both are students at Hólar University and represented Iceland at the World Championships in Switzerland this year with great results. Kristján became a two-time World Champion, winning both the 100-meter pace and the 250-meter pace, while Þórgunnur finished second place in five-gait, fourth in the five-gait combination, and placed fifth in T1. In this episode, we talk about the horses that have had the biggest impact on them, their experience at the World Championships, and what they look forward to in the future.
