[RC] Napping - Winter, Randy or CherylI'm 52. Been riding horses all my life, distance riding since 1997. Lately, every time I go trail riding, I have to take a nap afterwards. I mean, lights go out! Doesn't matter if it's a 5 mile ride or 25 miles, doop de doo pace or bookin'. After I get home, put the horse away and sit down, I just crash. Hey Chris Napping is a great way to recharge the batteries. Like Karen I have taken naps all my life. I learned it from my father years ago. People at work marvel at the fact if I do not do out walking that I can lay down in a quiet office, put my feet up on a chair for 30 minutes, fall into a deep rest and come right back out of it with out a alarm and be refreshed and ready to go. Very close to a meditation type rest ( or so I have been told). The only thing I would add to this thought is if you think this is a very new or unusual thing for you maybe just get a few lab works done to be sure everything is ok. But if you are like a lot of us, juggling many balls, then maybe it is just the time out you need to refresh. Cheryl ============================================================ We are talking about all the tools we can use to keep our horses safe and alive at the rides. Training/conditioning is one of the best tools available. It makes us better horseman and women, it benefits our horses and could quite possibly be the key to preventing most crashes. ~ Lisa Salas - The Odd Farm ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
