Hey, been there DONE that! On my very first competitive trail ride (about 27 years ago), I was so very exhausted that I got off my horse at about the 25 mile marker and laid down under a tree. I (thought I) was suffering from extreme heat stroke. The young girl riding with me asked if I wanted her to go on and send help back, but I somehow managed to drag myself back on and finish the ride. I remember while laying there that I prayed to God to save me, and if He did, I promised Him I would NEVER do this again!! Well, needless to say, 27 years later, I'm still doing it! (I hope He is not holding this against me!!! :)
