Re: [RC] Endurance Vs. CRT - rides2far@xxxxxxxxIn CTR, your horse is given 10 minutes to meet criteria, but you really want his pulse to be better than criteria, because criteria, such a 64 bpm, is the pint at which he just barely made it! In MOTDRA CTR, you lose points for any pulseover 44 bpm. We had some CT people working our P&R's once and they were scandelized that so many horses were presented to them at 64. I tried to explain to them that anybody who presented much lower had done a sorry job of getting to the P&R's quickly. If you can trot in off the trail from making good time, pull a saddle and get into the pulse area at 64 you've paced yourself perfectly. Any one of those horses could have been 44 if they'd walked them from a 2 mile marker. It's just a different strategy is all.
