[RC] Am I getting old - Chris Paus

or what???? does anyone else experience this?

I'm 52. Been riding horses all my life, distance
riding since 1997. Lately, every time I go trail
riding, I have to take a nap afterwards. I mean,
lights go out! Doesn't matter if it's a 5 mile ride or
25 miles, doop de doo pace or bookin'. After I get
home, put the horse away and sit down, I just crash.

I've tried eating before I go out, eating when I get
home, taking electrolytes, etc. Doesn't matter. It's
like a sleeping pill!

Any ideas????

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.
