  • 50 mile endurance race! Well, not all races end as you had hoped. Trails were stunning. Ride extremely well run. Sometimes a 65 year old body just doesn't get with the program. Not our first 50 mile race and certainly not our last. Just a bump along the way to our 100. All journeys have bumps. This was our bump.

I am also glad you have shared this detailed emergency details, this make us more aware of risks we could encounter while riding long hours. You are so young in spirit and mind, keep going!!!

    Good to hear that you are doing well.
    My sister and I are going to try some introductory rides. I wouldn't call 25 miles an "endurance" ride. We are 64 and 66 years old.
    It was fun and inspiring to find your videos. I think that you both handle those beautiful but spirited horses very well. I was watching in one of the videos the grey horse was hopping around and the rider did a great job of coping with it.
    Ride well and take care of yourself.

      I remember my first few introductory rides “they were the best of times- they were the worst of times!” Enjoy! Honestly, at 65 riding keeps me moving - slowly at times with lots of sore muscles but all in all, I am MUCH fitter than I would be without it!

    Wow! That was a shocker and such a relief to know you're okay. You are an inspiration. You ladies are amazing. To push yourselves to such limits on horseback. Such respect for all your efforts and challenges met. Way to go. Much applause. Truly.

      It have gone so many different ways. I was honestly shocked. And waking up in such a serious environment like ICU is terrifying. 😊

      my husband was given diuretics to lower his blood pressure and he was rushed in to hospital with a very high heart rate, the diuretics had washed all the potassium out. Glad you are recovering, take it easy

    I'm just a bit older than you - but so wish I could be doing that too. Only ever managed 30 miles here in the UK with my (sadly now long gone) Arabian. Good Luck

    • @diaryofanendurancerider
      @diaryofanendurancerider  Před 10 měsíci

      Thank you. I wish you could be riding too. I wish that for anyone who finds they are done before they “feel” they are done.

    Wow I'm so glad you are ok!
    I have had issues with electrolytes in the past that led to an er visit and one thing I found out is the popular sports drinks we buy usually have very little in the way of actual electrolytes, I started using products developed for ultra runners instead and have much better results

    • @diaryofanendurancerider
      @diaryofanendurancerider  Před 10 měsíci

      Thank you. So interesting you say this… I secretly suspect the commercial electrolyte drink I was taking as well… just not ready to say too much puvlically yet. I think it was a combination of the perfect storm but it’s not the first time I felt off after taking that brand. Also, I am watching ultrarunners videos like there is no tomorrow. Thank you for sharing.

  • @jerichafleishell1155
    @jerichafleishell1155 Před 5 měsíci

    I’m seriously interested in this sport.
    How do the riders go pee? I drink a lot and have had three kids so I have to go every 45 minutes soooo idk how that would work. Squat on the trail?

      Very unexpected. Have lots of miles under my belt. Never expected this. Doing a ton of research and very grateful that it all worked out.
