In some very good news for the start of 2026, Liz Halliday has posted an update on her social media advising that she returned home to Lexington, Kentucky just before Christmas, after spending the past 16 months in hospitals and rehabilitation centres.

Liz, who suffered serious head trauma during a cross country fall at the 2024 American Eventing Championships, says that “It’s hard to describe all of the emotions you experience when you walk through the door to your own home for the first time in so long … joy, gratitude, and a sense of pride that all of the hard work I have done over the past 16 months has brought me to this point”.

“My recovery journey is far from over. I’ve converted my office into a home gym and am working on getting stronger every day. I am still committed to my weekly therapy sessions to continue working on my speech and regaining more mobility. And I am continuing to ride at a local facility, which has been so beneficial in my recovery”

“I am excited to continue to improve, and I am so grateful to you all for cheering me on throughout this recovery journey. I still have a long way to go, but I’ll never give up, and I’ll never stop fighting”.
