Subject: RE: [RC] Let's talk endurance
goals for '06
My plans are not so grand I am just planning on doing my
first 50 on my 10 year old gelding. This is our 3rd year of CTR/LD's someday I
will be able to type in "endurance" too.

Since I refuse to enter the current food fight on
RC, I think we should change the subject....
The Question of the Day: What are your goals for
'06, and how are you going to obtain them?
My answer: I am planning on doing at
least five 100 milers on Equal Terms this coming season - a VERY lofty
goal, but obtainable, I think. She will be 15, it will be her fifth year
of competition, and she did three 100s, a 75, and several 50's (including back
to back 50's twice) in '05. I was going to retire her and start riding
my next mare in line, Bey Allure, who will be 10 next year, but ET is sound
and LOVES going down the trail, and seems to thrive on 100s....since I LOVE
100s, it seemed like a no brainer to keep her on the trail.
She is having a few months off now, with her
shoes pulled and her coat shaggy. I will start riding her lightly in mid
Feb and take her to the Sand Hills 100 in SC in mid March.
