Re: [RC] Elevator Rides yes bring them back... - Barbara McCrary
I can agree with your last sentence. I
also notice I am more susceptible to heat than when I was younger. I have
to watch my water intake very carefully.
Subject: [RC] Elevator Rides yes bring
them back...
When I first started... a long time ago... it was
a good incentive to be able to elevate to the next higher ride...ie from 25 or
30 to 50. In the past when I was young, it was extremely difficult to
get in the riding time and many things were sacrificed... I still have those
bad habits...ie house cleaning.. BUT, one doesn't always know 'if' one can do
a fifty, where as a 25 is not so bad. Unfortunately, my energy level has
a tendency to give out, especially in the heat and humidity and after I became
a heat casualty. There are SO MANY variables in this sport that on
any one day, any one of them can do you in. Now a concern is whether I
can finish, not whether the horse can. Getting older is not for the
faint of heart.
