“I’m excited to be a Wild Card competitor at Road to the Horse. It’s been something I’ve followed for a long time and I’ve watched all the competitors over the years and thought about what it would be like to be there. I think the Wild Card challenge will be awesome to be a part of, and I was honored to be invited.”
