[RC] LD's...I mean endurance - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Diane Roby diane_roby2002@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== So far I've only done the 2 LDs this year. And I am quite satisfied with LD being LD. I took a 5 year old POA pony who up until I bought her had been part of someone's show string for the POA futurities. I bought her in Sept and we successfully completed our first LD in March. I work full time and am raising a 13 year old daughter as a single mom (was then, I'm married now but still working full time). Our conditioning was mostly in a 200 x 600 outdoor arena roughly 4 laps = 1 mile. I was able to only do a few longer rides out on the trails. Could I have done this and completed successfully (on time, healthy happy pony) for a 50? Probably not, I'm not that good yet. The LD format is exactly what WE need. I treasure every last mile we've done. I'm sorry but if you want to do endurance move up to either the 50s or the 100s. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
