training for Tevis???



Hello everybody!

I have a couple of questions for those of you who have trained for/competed in the Tevis Cup. =)

First off, how did you train for it??

Were you shootin' for a certain time there and back on your training rides, and what type of terrain helped the most?

Did you "blow-out" in a couple of 100's before the Tevis or just train and do a few endurance rides (50's or 75's) and go into Tevis with those?

What made you feel that your horse (equine!) was Tevis material??

I have just recently begun in NATRC (2002 will be my second year) and have never done an endurance ride but I *feel* like my guy could possibly do it.  He has heart, he loves the trail. and has gotten pretty good P+R's at the NATRC rides we went to last year.  I know that's not enough to base a decision on but I am curious as to how others have done their training for Tevis. =)

Thanks guys for all info!
