Re: [RC] [RC] Set program? - Diane Trefethen

Ranelle's protocol is very good, especially for a horse that is not yet ride-ready. Once you've reached a level of fitness sufficient to go 50 miles in 8 hours or less, you can scale back on the conditioning. Keep the Sunday ride around 20 miles/6 hours and the two weekdays no more than an hour and a half and about 6-8 miles. This means that with a 20 minute warm up and cool down you'll spend some time going 8-12 mph, good practice for your horse AND you.
