Re: [RC] [RC] RideCamp -LDs. - heidiI think it's the implication that 25 miles isn't "real endurance" because 1) it is called "limited" distance and 2) is not in fact, as you pointed out in your other post, considered "endurance." When in actuality it requires less limits and more endurance than 99% of anyone who ever got on a horse. That's only a negative if you yourself perceive it to be one. Consider instead that it is "distance" which is more than 99% of people that ever get on a horse will do, and the "limit" is that it is less distance than an endurance ride. That's what it "implies" to me, and I'd wager that was what was "implied" by whoever named it. Apparently not many are put off by the name--the LDs as a rule are very well attended, particularly in Howard's region...
