Re: [RC] 100 milers - Lysane CreeOne hundred mile rides define endurance in my mind. While I am very much a newbie, my ultimate goal is to do 100 milers, regardless of how long it takes for me to get there. It may be awhile yet because I may or may not have a horse to "borrow" this summer and this horse is a beginner too, and I finally have a horse of my own again, but she is only 9 months old. So either way, it will be awhile yet, but 100 miles is my goal. Not that my first 25 miles was a piece of cake either :) but if I can do 100 miles then I will know that I will have achieved my personal fitness goals as well as the ones for my horse.

I haven't made it to a 100 miler yet, but that is what I am working towards and sure hope all you ride managers and 100 mile riders keep on keeping on, so those of us who haven't joined your ranks, can still do so. You have my utmost respect and admiration and I won't consider myself a true endurance rider until I can complete 100 milers with a happy and healthy horse :-) But I wholeheartedly agree that whatever we can do, to at least get back to the highpoint of 100 miler entries is a goal well worth pursuing for AERC and endurance riders in general. ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
