[RC] Not true endurance - Jody - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Rob Losey jrlosey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Dear Jody, I've read your record. I'm impressed. I'm sure your a fine rider. I never intended to disparage your mother. If you took it that way, I'm sorry. My mother never rode and never will. She works hard at everyday tasks and has to endure alot to just get through a day. I'm proud of her. Endurance and the work someone put in is subject to their and their horse's individual capabilities. I've seen riders work hard to do a slow 25 and have something to be proud of. I've seen 50 riders do a hot 50 without working or breaking a sweat. Pride in ones accomplishment is an individual thing. If you ever have a chance to see a Special Olympic event, do it. You'll walk away with tears in your eyes. My use of the word endurance is not any AERC definition. I don't mean it do be. I'm not recommending the definition be changed. I use the word in a truer sense. To struggle for a goal and endure. My post was not directed at you. It was directed at Strokers who have a need to put down others accomplishments to inflate their own.
