Re: [RC] who are we to" align" with? - Barbara McCrary
Yes, my husband entered it once. He rode the
horse part. That's the even when he was off his horse,
running down a hill and someone's stallion ran right over him and knocked him
flat on the ground. So much for the theory that a horse really would try
hard NOT to run over a person.
My first ever "distance" competion was the Almaden
Triathalon (maybe1983 or 84). IT was held at Calero Park in Almaden valley,
and I only remember it was put on by Dan Barger. It had a25 mile bike
race, 25 mile horse, and 8 mile very hilly run. i was dared to do it by
a friend, and did the horse portion of the team on my Appy X mare, who was
probably in her early 20;s. I did a lot of conditioning on her,and had a
blast! Anyone else remember this?
Years ago a woman in western
Oregon put on a triathlon which included biking, running and riding.
It was well attended but as far as I know only happened once. Maybe
that would be a good way for some areas to align with other local trail
groups using BLM land.
