RE: [RC] President's Cup - Steph TeeterThey want endurance to be an Olympic Sport, yet they may be raising the bar so high that the very height of it will limit the countries who will compete...and who is interested in an Olympic competition with limited participation and total dominence by such a well financed, non inspiring machine? >> Angie>> Well, there's always the silver and gold :) Consider the past 15 years - the sport was dominated at the International level by the USA - the other nations still participated, and they have been studying and learning and improving. The UAE has yet to win a team Gold at a World Championship. (though a WEC in Dubai looks pretty promising) - still, this is Endurance, and there are still so many human factors - strategy and pacing, control, . and luck! Who is interested?... anybody that appreciates a good challenge! Steph ============================================================ Just because someone tells you that your horse isn't "fit" for endurance...doesn't mean it isn't, it just means your horse isn't fit to be "their" endurance horse! Go for it, you never know what you'll accomplish with that "saddle horse" or "trail horse" of YOURS! ~ Darlene Anderson - DPD Endurance ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
