[RC] re: guidelines - Cindy Collins

I don't know anyone who conditions that much, either, or anyone who races
flat out for a mile...but, whatever.  I never conditioned that much in the
"old" days when I rode some sub 4 hour 50s.  I would say that a more
realistic schedule for most of us is two weekday rides of 8 to 12 miles
and one weekend long ride of 15-20 miles.  Speed and terrain would depend
upon the horse and your goals.  Once the ride season starts, I just try to
make sure the horse gets enough exercise to stay loose and keep
conditoned.  Just my opinion, of course...I bet everyone will give you a
different answer.  Cindy
