I saw this video on another forum and thought OMG, THAT's just what I want to do! I'm a million miles away at the moment, but maybe one day ...

Sarah Braithwaite is co-author of Feet First:Barefoot performance and rehabilitating hooves, so the video is of course interesting from a barefoot perspective, but I wasn't so interested in that as the ride itself - the scenery, the partnerships between horse and rider, and all the tack and gear they used - wish I knew what it all was!

And I was just thinking, how on earth do you plan and carry out a ride like that and then the link is at the end of the video -

Amazing, I enjoy our endurance rides, but I don't really want to race and compete - this is what I want to do. (Especially the gallop on the beach!)
