[RC] I'm a distance rider - Kristi Schaaf

When people find out that I ride my horse longer
distances than your typical trail rider, they say "so,
you're an endurance rider"? I reply that I'm a
distance rider. I've ridden 1000 NATRC miles and some
LD's and often had to 'endure' to earn those miles,
but I am NOT an endurance rider till I get that first
AERC 50 under my belt because the word ENDURANCE, in
the distance riding world, is defined as "50 or more
miles". It seems simple enough to me. 

I am looking SOO forward to the day that I can say
'yep, I'm an endurance rider', but if I end up riding
LD forever and forever, I'll still be proud to be a
'distance rider'. I'm just not going to claim I'm
something I'm not...
