Re: [RC] Not an Endurance Rider.... - m l

Thanks Truman for stepping in.  The comment I made was
to lift up a person, not bring them down.  There are
alot of riders out there that have things happen for
one reason or another and have a hard time getting
that completion.  We have alot of riders who haven't
had lady luck take their completion from them and
that's great.  I'm not into kicking someone when the
are down.

I hate to interperate someone elses comment. That

anyway. I think what the comment meant  as stated in
the Kenny Rogers 
song, "...  you have to know when to hold, you have
to know when to fold 
em......."  Just as the gambler had to be in tune
with the game, the 
endurance rider has to be in tune with his horse.
Some times you will 
need to pull. You might be able to ignore it a time
or two and get away 
with it, but then again it will catch up with you
and when it does you 
will rue the day to temped fate.

Laura has done a great job, but most of us don't
have a great horse like 
her's and lady luck also enters into the equation.
Stuff happens and 
when it does we had all better recogonize when SJAR
(something just 
ain't right) hits or we may wish we had.

The good thing about the first pull is it's over
with and life can go on 
- minus the obcession of not getting pulled.

Hmmm. Well, let's see. According to Laura Hayes'

online record, she went ten

seasons and over 50 endurace rides before having a

pull. Granted, she could

have had a pull prior to 1985....Hey, Laura, how's

it feel not to have been

an endurance rider for those 10 years?

Boy, I hope I NEVER become an endurance

rider...just like Laura! ;--)

If you haven't been pulled or had to pull your

horse, you're not an

endurance rider yet.
