Went and Linda began developing their passion for endurance riding early in their marriage. The combination of their talents and determination resulted in some legendary partnerships and record breaking results.
From the legendary Tevis Cup to the Great American Horse Race; Linda’s influence in the endurance world was far reaching.
Linda was only a teenager when she met the man who would alter the trajectory of her life forever. Wentworth Tellington was well educated, innovative, organized and brilliant; and more than two decades Linda’s senior.
The early years of marriage took them to Puerto Rico, Nevada, and California, engaging Linda’s natural gift with horses along the way and ultimately combining their talents to share their innovations and knowledge to the horse world.
In this episode Linda recounts her early childhood in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada as well as Yellowknife, NWT, Canada during WWII.
