At the Hold Podcast Episode 21 - Stevie Delahunt

At the Hold: A Podcast for Endurance Riders with Kim Minarich

October 29 2026

I am especially excited to introduce my next guest, Stevie Delahunt.

I have followed Stevie, initially thought the Mongol and Gaucho Derbies, and then as a fellow, very much admired endurance rider.

Stevie loves thrill-seeking, adrenaline rush, over the top adventures and endurance sports. But most of all she is an outstanding horsewoman, trainer and genuinely cares about horse welfare and helping them be the best athletes they can be and you - the best rider you can be!

Stevie has completed the three longest horse races in the world - the Mongol Derby, Race the Wild Coast in South Africa, and the Gaucho Derby in Patagonia. In addition, she has three Tevis completions!

For this podcast, I wanted to focus on Stevie’s rider fitness program, specifically for women 50+! We are losing muscle fast and need to focus on weight training and building muscle around those vulnerable joints for riders - hips, knees, ankles and feet. Stevie has many great tips and ideas for us including how you can get ourselves and our horse through a difficult ride. She walks us through the physical part but also the importance of mindset and connection to our horse.

But we cover it all and more!

I want to share a quote by Stevie that somewhat sets the stage…”Learning the balance between creating triumph or trauma in difficult situations deepens the trust you have in yourself and your horse has in you, and it creates great opportunities for personal growth.”

With that… I am honored to introduce Stevie Delahunt! I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did...
