    Greetings
    
    I have not done a ride since 1992 do to raising kids . They are getting older now and are a little more independent so I am getting the itch to start riding again. In reading the posts here I see a lot of talk about suppliments and feeding. In my day I kept my horses on green pasture, gave electrolytes when training and riding, and fed grass hay when needed. They seemed to do just fine and completed rides in good shape. I guess my question is: Has technology/endurance riding changed much in the last ten years? Is there new info I should know about? I am a heavy weight rider, 6'2" 210, so top ten was not my goal I just wanted to finish near the middle with the horse ready to go again and have fun and I did this well. Anyhow, any thoughts on this subject will be appriciated.
    Thanks
    Bob
