I'm new to the Internet world and the Endurance world so maybe I could
get a little advise???

My horse, Mystery, lives in Petaluma (about 40 miles north of San
Francisco). We do 10 to 15 miles on a weekend day, after he is nice
and fit from ranch training during the week. He lives on hilly pasture
and also gets lots of exercise from playing with his herd buddies.

Is this horse a canidate for endurance? Are there endurance or even
just trail riding clubs near me that anyone knows about? Am I asking
too much of a weekend horse to do an endurance ride? How many miles
per day do the riders generally go?

Thanks, I'm looking forward to the advise. Kimberly
