My husband has gotten some very good advice from riders who have many miles under their belts. He has chosen to ride slow...think middle of the pack...and do multi-day rides. Our horses have become so much more fit because of it. He feels this was a big contributing factor in his Tevis finish.Rosannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963277636652034473.post-5906332750864205982011-02-16T18:42:33.682-08:002011-02-16T18:42:33.682-08:00snap, that is a ton of thinking!!!

I LOVE your dressage dissection b/c I find it SO true!<br />As for the food, I have been trying so so so hard to not eat out, but I find myself craving it! I am really lazy when it comes to anything not horse related (school, working out...school), so lately I've tried to change my way of thinking to 'lose weight for my horse and fitting into my show boots again' and its working. But seriously I wish I could eat like you, props!<br />As for the tack, NICE. That is a good chunk of change :)Checkmark115https://www.blogger.com/profile/08875106264738444238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963277636652034473.post-86950008692836566102011-02-16T15:07:56.308-08:002011-02-16T15:07:56.308-08:00I second the baby food advice.

I'm also a big fan of chocolate flavored power bars, but they're not for everyone. <br /><br />Congrats on selling the tack. <br /><br />Agreed on distance over speed.Domhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139769676714813261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963277636652034473.post-56763444334198750402011-02-16T11:05:32.948-08:002011-02-16T11:05:32.948-08:00Mel: regarding your food on 100's, consider pa...Mel: regarding your food on 100's, consider packing a few containers of babyfood--which is real food squished up nicely. Might be easier to digest, and keep you on track a little longer. Gu and things like it make me sick faster than anything else. My go-to food for hot rides is a banana; I just wish they travelled better!AareneXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17569818745110332355noreply@blogger.com
