Rest & Relaxation

I believe more and more these days in the benefit of a little rest and relaxation for the hard working distance horse.  When Journey gets two or three consecutive days it is like her battery has been on "charger" and she is re-energized.  The Spotted Wonder is taking a couple of days off.  We'll heal up that pastern boo-boo, and be ready to roll come Friday.  We are running into another trough of rain, rain, rain...will be difficult to keep the training schedule on track, but will just do the best I can.  See you all in a couple of days.

  1. Yes yes yes!!!!!! The longer I do this the less I do. And the better the horse gets. There's a limit of course - the fun part is to figure out WHAT that limit is for each horse, but I'm figuring out that I rode WAY TOO many miles even for a 100. :).
