Re: [RC] [RC] ? [RC] What if your horse hates to condition? - CowgirgoofYou sure can over-condition them, although you don't see it as much as you did back in the 80's when we all thought you had to ride the snot out of em'! When I did my first ride in 1980, it was nothing for me to condition six days a week at 6-8 miles each day I rode (no lie, I have the journals to prove it!). After a couple years of this I realized I was bringing a burned-out horse to the rides and backed off some.

Doesn't mean we won't go on trying to get better at what we do. Besides, if everything was perfect today, what would you do tomorrow? Slamming each other doesn't get anything done. ~ Dot Wiggins ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
