✨ Welcome Our New Running M Equine Ambassador — Charlie Paulson! ✨
From Burns Lake, BC, 14-year-old Charlie’s story started with a box of rhubarb…
At just 8 years old, she traded Joy Allen that box of rhubarb for an old half-draft mountain horse named Sorely — and built her foundation doing everything from Pony Club and jumping to barrel racing, roping, ranching, and more. That same horse carried her until retiring at 33. 💛
Now six years into competing, Charlie stays busy in:
🔥 Barrel Racing
🔥 Breakaway Roping
🔥 Team Roping
…and ranch work in between.
She competes on the BCBRA circuit and at BC rodeos, constantly pushing herself to grow.

The Joy Allen connection makes this one extra special to us, knowing our own roots trace back to the Kispiox Valley. It’s pretty incredible to see those western values carried into the next generation.
We’re proud to have you on the team, Charlie. Let’s make 2026 a big one. 🔥🐎
