Re: RC: Multi Days

[Farafix@aol.com]

Lauren,

How are your horse's legs holding up after the 50's?  Are you getting any fill
or heat?  If his legs look like they are coming thru clean, & if you've done
your homework & been getting the horse out 40-50 miles a week for the last yr
(of course, you have a few low mileage weeks in there due to blizzards, family
emergencies, etc), I'd try an easy multi-day at a slow pace.  Just keep an eye
on the legs as the tendons & ligaments take longer to get fit & are most at
risk, IMHO!  (You might want to be prepared with some  mud poultice or ice
wraps to wrap his legs after the ride as a precaution, but then you won't be
able to see how his legs come thru.)

Enjoy your ride!
