RE: [RC] [RC-Digest] 25 or 50 - Nancy MittsIf the rider had years and years of long mileage riding and considered themselves very horse-wise, do ya really think they'd be asking the question on ridecamp?Before everyone takes this the wrong way----I worked at a training barn & rode and cared for animals every day. Pretty much 24/7 for YEARS. Still didn't know what I needed to know to prepare a pasture potato go 50 miles safely. The only way to learn this was to start going to rides, not training at home. Nancy Mitts From: heidi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx But I think an important point here is to differentiate between whether it is good for HORSES to start right off with endurance distances versus whether it is good for PEOPLE to start right off with endurance distances. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
