[RC] Trail Cut/Howard - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Jeanne Pepper pepperja@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== The way I look at it,I'd continue riding endurance even if I never came in Top Ten or won anything.Some of the rides where I took the longest to finish were the ones I got the most satisfaction from crossing the finish line but there will always be folks who put winning before anything else.If the horses involved in this little escapade had looked bad at the finish I MIGHT have spoken up .But like I said,my horse won BC that day and so far that's a pretty hard contest to cheat on and the one award I always have as my goal! Oh yeh,this ride was a West Coast event and it's still being held and I hear it's greatly improved over the years.Probably a one-time happening.Pretty silly stuff in the grand scale of things. ===========================================================I don't think you have to join a gym or buy frilly outfits to get some fitness. A decent set of shoes and a 15 minute dismount here and there will help. ~ Jon K.
