no damage has been sustained, whether to tendons, ligaments, muscle, kidney,
whatever.

WELL SAID SUSAN!!!!

And that doesn't only apply to competition either, even just training or the
happy hackers!! I sometimes get so depressed when I see how some hackers
ride their horses and the horses are fine(well they seem to carry on
regardless) when endurance riders try to train and care for horses so
carefully and end up with some kind of problem. I know it is a function of
time, stress and mileage but it can be very depressing and off-putting even
so!
