MY JOURNEY/ABOUT ME:
I'm Rachael, the creator of River Runs Show Pads. My story starts with a lifelong love for horses. From the young age of 7, I started the inescapable journey into the world of horse showing, thanks to my mom. I began with local shows and our county fair with my mom's old pleasure horse, Pokey, a 1982 Sorrel QH Gelding. After Pokey's retirement I began showing my heart horse, Sly, a 1997 APHA (Solid) Gelding. The passion for showing only deepened over the years, culminating into the decision to step into the world of AQHA (American Quarter Horse Association) after aging out of Ohio's 4-H Program.
In 2020, I took a hiatus from the show circuit. During this time, I was horseless for the first time ever. Thankfully, it didn't last long. In 2021, I found an all-around prospect, Mazie, a 2019 Bay mare by Peace Out Man and out of an Invitation Only mare. Mazie's show career started in 2024. She exceeded my expectations for her first year in the show pen, earning a NSBA Congress Championship & a Reserve AQHA Congress Championship. I'm lucky to own such a sweet and kind mare. When I'm not managing River Runs, I am working a full-time job as a sales rep for Ford, running my photography business (Rachael Rayelle Photography), running an Etsy store, and social media & Marketing Management for a local vet clinic.
