That would have been either just befor...Michelle, <br /><br />That would have been either just before, or after the rearing episode. The second day was pretty stressful because Mike scared the crap out of me that she had to go slow, and she was NOT being cooperative and I was determined that she WAS going to go slow. That was why when I ran into you at the water tank I looked so grim, I was not looking forward to the vet out...but all was well. It is tough having a horse that wants to go fast, but NEEDS to go slow. Friday was a different animal. We had a good time all day, but she got to trot all the way. I vaguely remember yielding the trail to you guys at one point, but had my hands full.All Who Wanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811193190492037859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-41960810407650603602010-11-03T19:51:19.106-04:002010-11-03T19:51:19.106-04:00The tie up issue could be caused by a selenium def...The tie up issue could be caused by a selenium deficiency. Endurance horses are to have a higher selenium reading than what the norm is. I am not sure what that is but a friend of mine had the exact same problem. Her name is Debbie Parsons, you should email her, she would be glad to tell you what she did. sabalpalmfarm@gmail.comTerinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-77780873656914462542010-11-03T16:02:00.805-04:002010-11-03T16:02:00.805-04:00Bethann, you were following me and my friend Laura...Bethann, you were following me and my friend Laura. You do have a beautiful horse. <br /><br />EG, I seen you on the trail and you did not look too happy. Must have been your tough part on the trail. Both my horses and I had fabulous rides! Hoping to go to KY Diehards in a few weeks. Glad you completed both days. Did she eat and drink well for you?<br /><br />MichelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-42778948189449902362010-11-02T18:41:48.164-04:002010-11-02T18:41:48.164-04:00I'd definitely be up for some rides at Henryvi...I'd definitely be up for some rides at Henryville in the future! The more we end up getting of those hills the better. My plan is to ride there at least once a month beginning in February as weather permits me to have access. I haven't been down to the Deam Lake area yet. Love O'Bannon but it is a ways out for me for a day ride.All Who Wanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811193190492037859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-42960250953335446602010-11-02T17:50:24.885-04:002010-11-02T17:50:24.885-04:00I am from palmyra indiana and ride all the local p...I am from palmyra indiana and ride all the local places such as deam lake, o'bannon, and some henreyville.Wanna ride?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01628201887216547103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-4027549306020505282010-11-02T14:06:45.843-04:002010-11-02T14:06:45.843-04:00congrats, you did a great job managing your horse,...congrats, you did a great job managing your horse, doing what she needed! sometimes it takes more out of a horse fighting them - but I know letting her go faster wasn't good either, so I don't have a suggestion. those horses prone to tying up are a challenge and a worry, but you did it!<br /> - <a href="http://theequestrianvagabond.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Equestrian Vagabond</a>The Equestrian Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15600011873327347121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-43834740203345543422010-11-02T13:39:25.480-04:002010-11-02T13:39:25.480-04:00Bethann,

You guys were drafting the 50's and I trying everything in my arsenal to AVOID the 50's *LOL*.<br /><br />Where you from?<br /><br />JackeAll Who Wanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811193190492037859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-31675982691577407692010-11-02T10:35:19.828-04:002010-11-02T10:35:19.828-04:00I think you done grand.

I had the rearing bucking queen before we ever got started, we left 15 minutes behind everyone else and still managed to get 8 th because in the second loop my horse got behind a couple of 50milers and tucked herself in right behind. I have never cantered quite that much!<br />I had the small white fluffy dog are you the one with the pom?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01628201887216547103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-68128565808472341152010-11-01T22:04:08.504-04:002010-11-01T22:04:08.504-04:00EG, What a ride!

I think maybe the terrain being much more challenging than your normal terrain may have caused her to work harder (and get tight). Just a thought. But a big congratulations to both of you for doing it and finishing it well! Good for you!!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00141033474195269489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-43455564402235240742010-11-01T21:39:00.286-04:002010-11-01T21:39:00.286-04:00Great story!

And congratulations on your two day 60!<br />I have found that lots of worrying and thinking and dreaming about our horses eventually gets the little problems solved. So, maybe about a 1000 miles... I was in the 50 the first day and won!! My boy was just awesome, and yes those IN riders really go for it...gosh I am killed...Noways though, looks great... Ah these horses ~ how we love them.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680531199549912393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-51628825101332443962010-10-30T23:33:20.100-04:002010-10-30T23:33:20.100-04:00CONGRATULATIONS!
