[RC] Endurance Clinic in the SE - rides2farHey all you SE newbies. SERA and GERA along with the Oconee Ride management is sponsoring an all day seminar for beginning endurance riders next Friday (the day before the Oconee 30/55. The information is below. Ann Cofield contacted me a while back and asked if I'd speak along with several other experienced...and not so experienced riders. (one rider who's done one LD and will relate what she learned). Sounds like she's get it well broken down into interesting topics. I claimed two of my favorites...goal setting and sponging...and got assigned "what I look for in an endurance horse" which may be more valuable to use in the process of elimination than anything!>g< Ann was already experienced back when I was a newbie and she's really got a gift for bringing new people into the sport and keeping them. Nobody will be more gracious answering questions and helping you feel like you've got a place in this sport than she will. The cost of the seminar is deducted from the entry fee the next day so there's no reason not to jump on this. Last I heard they already had around 20 signed up. Hope to meet some of you in person.
