Just read your posting on Ridecamp. What is "The Endurance Handbook"?
Is it a summary of American ride rules, or does it describe the basics of
conditioning, competition, and etiquette? Since I ride in Northern
Alberta, American rules probably won't help me, but I surely need help
with the rest. I was riding with an experienced rider while absolutely
green in the sport and now realize I am one of the "Too far, Too fast,
Too soon" people. I hope my horse isn't damaged, and I don't want to
make the same mistake on my next two horses.
Please let me know if this handbook can help me. Also, what is
considered the "epitome" of Endurance Riding/conditioning reference
books?
