Miles from home

Davis High grad Gina Miles took bronze in equestrian today at the Pan-American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In fact, Team USA swept the podium, with Karen O'Connor (The Plains, Va.) and Phillip Dutton (West Grove, Pa.) grabbing the first two spots. That helped give the U.S. the team gold medal as well.

Miles, who resides in Creston now, rode McKinlaigh, a 13-year-old Irish Sport Horse. For more on Miles and the Pan-American Games, see Monday's Enterprise, and you can check out Miles' journal from Brazil at mileseventing.com.
