"I remember everything about that day. I remember "I remember everything about that day. I remember the name of the horse his color, and that it was a beautiful summer day in the mountains. I was thinking, This is it. This is the moment I've been waiting for. It was all I wanted to do for the rest of my life."

A trail ride in Colorado on a roan gelding named Schnapps was U.S. eventer Liz Halliday-Sharp's first foray into the world of horses. After her momentous first ride, Liz began taking lessons, earning money and saving her allowance to buy tack and riding clothes.

When the native Californian joined Pony Club and had a chance to jump cross country, she decided eventing was meant for her. "I got that 'this is it' feeling again," Liz said.

Liz's father, a vintage auto racer who instructed for the Sports Car Club of America, taught Liz how to race cars when she got her driver's license. The dad and daughter shared a 1967 Datsun 510 which was the first car Liz raced on her journey to becoming the most successful female driver in the American Le Mans Series.
