I always have to chuckle at this sort of question (sorry, Dabney)--but
gee, we do 50s five days in a row, call it a multiday, and don't think a
thing about it.

As for the time off part--I've ridden horses that represented both
extremes.  One of the best horses I ever rode was one that really needed
her 3x per week riding schedule, even if it was just a 5-mile jog.  She
did a 1000+ mile season of mostly Top Tens and I rode her faithfully every
Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday nearly the entire season.  The other horse
of mine that did a 1000+ mile season did better just going home and
getting turned out between rides.

There just isn't any magic formula.
