Re: [RC] Won't hurt? - John TeeterI agree with Angie; we really would benefit from facts.The upcoming world forum on endurance might be a place were motivation and resources to look at this issue. I've heard that the UAE has been fully, formally studying this area(1). Publishing their findings to the community might be of help. All the players will be together next week at the endurance forum in Paris. Does anyone know who the US representatives to the forum will be? I'd assume Vonita. Each federation has 3 slots to fill. There are, as I recall, there are 3 tracks (TD, Judges, and Vets) over the 2 day meeting. But I don't know who from the US is attending each track. The program: http://www.endurance.net/international/2007EnduranceForum/ FEIEnduranceForumProgram..pdf and the FEI page: http://www.horsesport.org/e/news/news.htm?vID=1486&sub=&active= Steph arrived in Paris last night (in the Paris early morning). Firstt I heard from her, she was trying to find the best way to get from CDG->Paris. The last time, she was on a bus headed to town:) jt (ps. Steph arrived in Paris last night (in the Paris early morning). First I heard from her, she was trying to find the best way to get from CDG->Paris. The last time I heard from her, she was on a bus headed to town:) (1) - re: Studies in the UAE - The stables/training farms in the UAE are ideal settings for controlled studies of electrolyte use IMO because they have very structured training protocols and full access to enough horses in training to be significant. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
