> Back in the 70s, when I first heard of TEVIS and endurance, I owned a
tough-as-nails AQHA mare.  We had shown english, western, jumping, trail,
etc and were bored.  Long distance riding seemed the next logical sport.  We
were 11th on our 1st ride (50 miles) and hooked.  Reno went on to do a
number of tough rides with many people cheering the little AQHA on.  If you
have a sound horse of any breed, give'm a chance.  You might be surprised!!

Thats a great story! I also wonder if the QH I saw in the 70's were far
different from
the small-footed, bloated muscle behemouths you see in the West coast horse
trader magazines.
