[RC] epics/bare hind/100 miles???? - Chrystal


Hi :-) so for those who have done a lot of riding in epics/ez boots etc...... who has done 100 miles with the hind feet bare??? I did 2 years of Novice CTR's and mileage rides barefoot ( well actually my horse did :-)) ;last summer started 50's and I used ez boots on the front and nothing on the back- we did a 50 barefoot as the trail was all sand, no gravel or roads. I think she could actually do 50 barefoot  with roads/gravel etc.. as we do all of our training that way but we would have to slow down!!! :-(   :-(     ;-)
Anyway I am planning on doing our first 100 next October- I think it is called Spook Run, in Indiana?? Anyone know the trail?? I am expecting to need to use hind boots for 100 miles so figured I should start using them a few months in advance  to get used to them, however then thought I would throw the question out there and see how many people have done 100 with bare back feet.

Thanks for any input!!!!:-)
