[RC] [RC] time off between rides - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Nicole z_arabs@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================


I'm thinking of doing my first slow 50 this weekend at Hallelujah
but it will be only 2 weeks after we did 2- 25's atYellowhammer.


I'm very new to this sport, but I have to say that if people
can do multidays, I don't know why back-to-back 50s should be any
problem.  Especially if you say you're planning on doing it slow.

I've done really tough 50s with only a week between (Malibu &
Lost Padres II -- turtled at both).  I've also done 50s with two
weeks between, and my mare was SO fit & full of energy at the 
second that she acted like a goofball all day -- which is out of
character for her.  And this is a horse in her first year of 
50s.  So, it's certainly possible.
