Region 5 Endurance season is about to get started.
Most of these rides have an "intro ride" or "trail ride" that is a shorter distance to allow you to try the sport without jumping into the limited distance of 25 mile. These intro rides are non-timed events, so you can take as long as you need to finish, yet still go through the vetting requirements to learn the process. If it's something you are thinking about trying it's the best way to experience endurance without the stress of being timed.
Another great thing about endurance, is there is really no dress code other than the required helmet while mounted per EDRA rules. You can use any saddle and any tack that best fits your horse and clothes that you feel comfortable in.
Region 5 Endurance Championship will be at Capital Forest in Olympia, Wash., June 23, 2018. Base camp will be the Evergreen Gun Club.
If you want to experience night riding in a safe environment, check out Midnight Riders on August 25. Ride manager, Bobbi Walker, does an amazing job of coordinating this to be a successful learning experience.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact Jala Neufeld at [email protected] or 253.617.8945 (leave message or text)
