Podcasts about endurance riding

On this week's episode Equiteam's Liz Daniels welcomes International Endurance rider, Iain Paterson to the show. Having represented Scotland seven times, won a 100 mile endurance ride through the Cairngorms after finishing the race in 21 hours, and spent four days in South Africa to complete the 350km ‘Race the Wild Coast' on horses he didn't previously know, his Mum's decision to take him on a pleasure ride as a young boy after seeing he was losing interest in Pony Club certainly seemed to be a good life-shaping decision! Filled with passion and enthusiasm for both the welfare of his horses and the sport, Iain shares an insight into endurance riding, and his family's involvement in the sport and building the Tannasg Arabians Stud.

Horseback Adventures and Endurance Riding Margaret Reynolds is an endurance rider who enjoys traveling abroad on horse adventures. When my friend and listener, John Zeliff, told me she would make a great guest, I listened. John is president of the NATRC, and we had him on the show a while back to talk about endurance riding. Margaret Reynolds is a Master Growth Catalyst of Breakthrough Masters Unlimited. For over 20 years, she has helped companies grow and improve their businesses. She has always had a love of horses. Like many, after her kids grew up and went out on their own, she got a horse. Margaret found endurance riding was her thing and joined both NATRC and AERC to compete in the sport. She also had a bucket list of places she would like to ride. With a tight group of friends sharing the same desire to ride in exotic places, they took their first horseback adventure to Spain. They rode the country, met the people, and sample the food. Margaret and her friends got to see the country from a unique vantage point. Since then, she has traveled and rode horses in many places, including Jordan, Portugal, and Morroco. Margaret is an avid writer and documents lessons from these trips in her blog. One of her articles about a horseback adventure she had in India riding a Marwari horse was published in the Outdoor Journal. Margaret tells us the trips were transformative, and she encourages any with a inkling to pursue their dream. Horseback Adventures Over the years, I've been lucky to interview many people in the travel industry. Most recently was Keith Swenson of Stone Horse Expeditions in Mongolia.

Today I am talking with Anna Erickson about Endurance riding in Australia. Anna has recently participated in the prestigious Tom Quilty Gold Cup, a 100 miles endurance race and the unofficial national endurance championship of the country.

If you love books, this is the perfect place for you. Once a month, Heather, Ute, and sometimes Krystal, will talk about their favorite horsey book. In today's episode of the EQA Book Club, Ute is talking with Claire Eckhard about her book Gallant - Call of the Trail, a story of a young girl and her horse. The book is modelled loosely on the life of Julie Suhr, a legend among American Endurance Riders with 22 Tevis Cup Buckles and three times Haggin Cup winner. It has been written for young adults, buts its strong endurance riding angle and simple but strong language makes it a joy to read for every horse lover and endurance rider out there.

Story 1.  

Today's guest is Ella Kociuba!  Ella and I met back when we were running obstacle races heavily.  Ella is one bad a*s chick, she has accomplished a lot in her life and she is not even 30 yet!  Ella started her interest in sports by Endurance Riding where she would compete in riding horses 25 - 50 miles! She ended up breaking her back (now has a metal rod holding things together) after a horse bucked her off.  After recovering, she got in to OCR and became one of the youngest females to win races and get on the Spartan Pro Team. She has completed the Death Race 5 times! Is a massage therapist, a tattoo artist and overall awesome person!  Tune in and enjoy the conversation I had with her and find out what cool things she has planned for June and her near future!

In this episode we have the joy of speaking with Canadian Endurance Trainer and Coach Ashley Tomaszewski. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the sport of Endurance and took the opportunity to ask about different races, conditioning, and training. We learned and laughed A LOT during this conversation and hope you enjoy listening just as much as we enjoyed recording it! You do NOT have to be an endurance rider to enjoy this episode, in fact, it is designed to expose endurance to the Canadian horse owners who are not versed in the world of endurance and all it is about and has to offer!Links Mentioned:https://ridelikeanathlete.com/stable-to-40khttps://www.facebook.com/APlusEnduranceRiding/https://www.instagram.com/a_plus_endurance/https://www.pothiermotors.comhttps://equilab.horseFollow Informed Equestrian online @:www.informedequestrian.comhttps://www.instagram.com/informedequestrian/https://www.facebook.com/informedequestrianhttps://www.tiktok.com/@informedequestrian

In this episode we speak with leading clinician & researcher Jo Gibson Jo Gibson studied physiotherapy at the Salford College of Technology and qualified in 1987. Her physiotherapy career started in Nottingham in 1987 at Queen's Medical Centre where an encounter with Professor Angus Wallace fuelled her interest in the shoulder. Jo moved to Liverpool in 1989 and after completing several years of rotational experience she joined forces with Professor Simon Frostick and, in 1996 she became one of the first specialist Upper Limb Physiotherapists in the UK. In order to increase her sub-speciality knowledge and expertise, Jo completed travel fellowships in the UK, Europe and the USA, sponsored by the British Elbow and Shoulder Society and Royal Liverpool University Hospital Trust Charities Board. Since that time the Liverpool Upper Limb Unit has gained an International reputation as a centre of Excellence in Shoulder and Elbow. Jo has a passion for education and since 1996 she has lectured nationally and internationally on rehabilitation of the shoulder and she runs her own courses all over the World.  Internationally, in 2004 she was a co-founder of the International Congress of Shoulder and Elbow Therapists, a meeting which now runs tri-annually. In addition, Jo has served as Vice president and Chair of the education committee on the EUSSER board (European Society of Shoulder & Elbow Rehabilitation). Nationally, Jo has been the AHP representative on the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS) Council and in addition she has served as a member of the BESS Research and Education Committees. She is an associate lecturer at the University of Liverpool and has co-developed tailor made masters modules to support physiotherapists working in or towards specialist Upper Limb appointments. Jo completed her Masters in Advanced Practice at Liverpool University in 2012 and completed her dissertation on the Biopsychosocial model cementing her belief in tailoring treatment to the individual and the importance of communication skills. She continues to be involved in upper limb research, has presented original research at many National and International conferences. She has published in peer-reviewed journals and written several book chapters. Jo also co-authored BESS Care Pathways for the British Elbow and Shoulder Society. Jo continues working at Liverpool Upper Limb Unit & Consultant in Private Practice In this episode we discuss: Jo's early family healthcare influences, how some disappointing A Level grades, her competitive nature and interest in Sports Medicine led to a career in physiotherapyHer main motivations for “helping others, making a difference and always striving to be better” have underpinned her whole careerHow Jo's passion for running and then Endurance Riding satisfied her competitive nature (she was modestly, VERY good too!)Key mentors, clinicians and surgeons who have inspired Jo (her Dad, Prof Angus Wallace, Prof Frostick, Louis Gifford, Ben Kiblet et al)How & what she learnt from trips overseas‘Keeping it simple for the shoulder' and translating the evidence into meaningful application for cliniciansHow communication is our SUPERPOWER Facebook: @hdpnglobal  Twitter: @shouldergeek1  Instagram: @shouldergeek1 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jo-gibson-51008513  Education https://www.hd-pn.com

A talk by Olivia Turner, Animal Behaviour Consultant & Equine Bitting Specialist during the Cromwell Seminar in January 2020.

Adam is a Gravel Grinder, endurance man. He has done some big gravel races and now done some 8 hour solos on MTB and made the jump to a 24 solo, because it's only 3-8's if you really think about it.

Usually my episodes are long (ish) interviews with one or two people but along the way I have also asked a few people for their best tips and tricks. Here is a collection of ten. And even though we are not able to compete right now the first five are all about training and preparation; so now is the ideal time to have a listen and put some of those into practice!Many thanks to all those who contributed to this episode by allowing me to pick their brains and point a mike at them!

This is a recording of the talk given by Dr Sue Dyson: Head of Clinical Orthopedics at the Animal Health Trust at the Endurance GB Welfare Conference. The talk was illustrated with videos throughout - which cannot be seen on a podcast! However, most of the commentary is self explanatory and Dr Dyson gives really helpful guidance on how to spot lameness in your horse. So despite the lack of video content I decided the talk was still worth posting.

It's nice to meet the face behind the name of people you usually only hear from in emails. So I was pleased to be able to interview Esther Young, the Operations Director of Endurance GB and Darren Butler who keeps things running smoothly at head office.Regular slots - Tried and Tested features the free app EquiBioSafe and, just because I love them, this month's random fact!

By Davy Crockett  Both a podcast episode and a full article In Part One on Endurance RIding, I covered the very early history of the sport of endurance riding from 1814-1954 when forgotten individuals established the sport they called "endurance riding" and paved the future for the sport. In Part Two I covered the early history of the Western States Trail Ride (Tevis Cup) from 1955-1970 and worked through some folklore about the history of the Ride. In this concluding part we will wade through some controversy and get to the ultrarunning fun, the founding of the Western States Endurance Run or commonly called, the Western States 100. By 1970 with all the numerous endurance rides held across the country, the Western States Trail Ride, or “the Tevis” had emerged as being the toughest and the premier endurance ride in the country. It had survived intense criticism over the years from the public and animal rights groups. Under the leadership of Wendell Robie, the ride had made adjustments, weathered the storms of criticism, and increased in popularity. By 1970 among the dozens of endurance rides, there were still only a few that patterned their event after the Western States Trail Ride, Virginia City 100, and two 50-milers in California, Castle Rock 50 and Blue Mountain 50. In 1971 two more were established, Big Horn 100 in Wyoming, and Diamond 100 in California which awarded a Wendell Robie Cup. In all, across the country there were nearly 100 endurance rides of various flavors held in 1971. Some histories grossly under count and mislead readers into thinking there were just a handful of endurance rides in existence at that time. During 1971 there were at least 20 new rides established with distances between 25-100 miles and several of them were influenced by the Western States Trail Ride in one way or another. Some started to award belt buckles and some rode on tough trails. But most of these new “races” were doing their own thing. For example, the Wasatch Mountain 50 Mile Endurance Ride in Utah was particularly tough, doing loops near the present-day Wasatch Front 100 course with some big climbs. By 1971, endurance riding was ready to enter into a new era with the strong influence by those associated with the Western States Trail Ride. North American Trail Ride Conference Finishers of the 1945 Concord Mt Diablo 80 Back in 1941, at Concord, California, an endurance ride was established by the Concord Chamber of Commerce, and was patterned after the Green Mountain Ride in Vermont. It was a two-day (later three-day), 80-mile ride going from the city of Concord on trails, winding across ranches, through wooded canyons, and along the slopes of Mt. Diablo. They emphasized that “to finish was to win,” that the last finisher could be the winner. This endurance ride in California was established 14 years before the first edition of the Western States Trail Ride in 1955. Twenty years later, in 1961, members of the rider association in Concord established the North American Trail Ride Conference. That year in a newspaper article it was stated, “The purpose of the conference, or organization is to coordinate dates so there will be no conflicts, develop rules and regulations for member rides and riders, and generally help and promote new rides just getting established.” With the many critics from influential organizations like The Humane Society, the NATRC emphasized looking after the “soundness of horses.” The NATRC said that their events were not “endurance rides” (but they really were). They also started to refer to their flavor of endurance riding as “competitive trail riding.” This semantic approach was used to distance themselves from the intense criticism that the Western States Trail Ride was receiving even though the Tevis claimed that it wasn’t a race (but it really was). The careful use of words was obviously part of a strategy to fend off attention and criticism from animal rights groups and ...

By Davy Crockett  Follow @ultrarunninghis Both a podcast episode and a full article (Listen to the podcast episode too.) Make sure you read Part 1 too. You might ask, what does the history of endurance riding have to do with ultrarunning? There are many close parallels between these two endurance sports. Ultrarunners should feel indebted to those of the endurance riding sport who had the vision to establish some early trail 100-milers for runners. The trail 100-miler inherited many of the same procedures of aid stations, course markings, trail work, crews, medical checks, cut-off times, and of course the belt buckle award. Part 1 covered the very early history of Endurance riding up to 1955. By 1955 the sport of endurance riding had existed in America for more than 40 years since the initial competitive 1913 ride in Vermont. The sport was called “endurance riding” by those who participated in it for the early decades. Part 2 will cover the very significant birth of the famed Western States Trail Ride (aka Tevis Cup), which inherited practices from the older endurance rides, especially the Vermont 100 Trail Ride. Introduction: Different Formats For Endurance Rides When you read some of the histories on the Internet about endurance riding, It is odd to an outsider to read such things like, "endurance riding was born in 1955 with the first Western States Trail Ride“ and  "a new nationwide sport was born.” These "birth" references ignore the roots of the endurance riding sport that existed for decades and was shared in Part 1. Why? About 1970, a redefinition was invented to solve disputes of competing endurance riding factions. The main difference is whether an endurance ride should enforce a minimum finish time to protect the horse. It appears that much of what was called in the past, "endurance riding," wasn't really endurance riding, it was "competitive trail riding" simply because they had a different format and distance. To this outsider history buff, you shouldn't rename the past to fit your format preference of the present. Nevertheless, most of those who prefer the present-day "endurance riding" definition believe that their sport gave birth in 1955 with not much acknowledgment of the past. That "birth" will be covered in this part. The parallel with ultrarunning history is fascinating. Many runners think incorrectly that the entire ultrarunning sport was born with the creation of the Western States Endurance Run in 1977. Similarly, many riders think that the entire endurance riding sport was born with the creation of the Western States Trail Ride. In both cases the legend and folklore of these major events are taking too much credit at the expense of pushing aside their heritage and those who made their events possible to be established. The creation of the Western States Trail Ride was certainly a pivotable historic event for the sport. It would eventually lead to the creation of the American Endurance Ride Conference (AERC) governing organization in 1971 that helped launch the endurance riding sport into a new modern era. Even more impactful to the endurance world was the creation of the Western States Endurance Run in 1977. Both of those events will be covered in the next article/episode. The State of Endurance Rides in 1955 In the 1950s and 1960s there was no overarching governing body for endurance rides to set standards or to sanction the events. Much like trail ultrarunning today, riding competitions were created by independent associations and clubs. Event directors could set the distances and rules themselves. Public perception and criticism influenced how the events were handled. Rides were created patterned after other rides held in the country. But the endurance riding sport did exist before 1955 and was growing. Miss USA awards the winner of the 1955 Vermont 100 In 1955, the premier endurance ride, the Green Mountain 100 Mile Trail Ride,

By Davy Crockett  Follow @ultrarunninghis Both a podcast episode and a full article (Listen to the podcast episode which includes a bonus running story.) Endurance riding is the equestrian sport that includes controlled long-distance riding/racing. The sport has existed for more than a century in various forms. 100-mile trail ultramarathons, especially the Western States Endurance Run, Old Dominion 100, and Vermont 100 can trace their roots to endurance riding. Other trail 100s that emerged in the 1980s were also influenced by endurance riding practices. Ultrarunners should feel indebted to those of the endurance riding sport who had the vision to establish some early 100-mile trail races for runners. The trail 100-miler inherited many of the same procedures of aid stations, course markings, trail work, crews, medical checks, and of course the belt buckle award. Once ultrarunners understand their history, a common kinship is felt between the two sister endurance sports. So trade in your running shoes for horse shoes for a few minutes and learn about an inspiring and adventuresome endurance riding history that impacted the sport of ultrarunning. The Origins of the Endurance Riding Sport in America Usually the credit for establishing the endurance riding sport is given to Wendell Robie of Auburn, California when he initiated the Western States Trail Ride (Tevis Cup) in 1955. (That history will be covered in Part 2). But endurance riding competitions of various formats existed long before 1955. Vermont must be recognized as the birth place for the endurance rides in America. Perhaps it depends on the definition for the “endurance ride.” The debate around the definition of what an endurance ride is, is similar to the definition of what an ultramarathon is. Is an ultramarathon anything over a marathon or do they start at 50 miles? One published definition for the endurance ride is “a timed test against the clock of an individual horse/rider team’s ability to traverse a marked, measured cross-county “trail” over natural terrain consisting of a distance of 50 to 100 miles in one day.” That is a modern, very limited definition especially the “trail” limitation, and the one-day limitation. But it still does apply to many very early endurance rides that predated the Western States Trail Ride. Just as ultramarathons did not originate with the 1977 Western States Endurance Run, organized endurance riding did not originate with the 1955 Western States Trail Ride as Wikipedia erroneously states. Such a claim can also be found in other histories on the Internet. Some of the early endurance ride pioneers and events seem to have been forgotten or pushed aside. Rides That Inspired Endurance Riding Sam Dale monument In 1814, Sam Dale (1772-1841), the "Daniel Boone of Alabama" made a famous 670-mile ride on horseback in eight days from Georgia to New Orleans in the dead of winter to deliver a dispatches from Washington D.C. to General Andrew Jackson during the War of 1812. Some have called this the "greatest ride in United States history." Francis Aubry Long before there was organized mail delivery, a French Canadian, Francis Aubry (1823-1852) was a American frontier legend who delivered mail from Santa Fe, New Mexico to Independence, Missouri during the war with Mexico during the 1840s. He purposely sought to break speed records and would on occasion ride his horses or mules to death. Depiction of Aubry's arrival at Missouri In 1848 Aubry accepted a bet of $1,000 that he could make the 800-mile ride between Santa Fe and Independence in six days. He made arrangements to switch horses at various locations along the route about 100 miles apart. He ate as he rode, tied himself to the saddle, and took brief naps. An army Major stated, “He passed my train at a full gallop without asking a single question as to the danger of Indians ahead of him.” After 100 miles he was going to switch out his yellow m...

Endurance Riding with Our Friends Paul and Dona Endurance Riding?  How did we get here?  I love following leads wherever they go.  It's not an admirable trait, I know, but I can't help it.  Keith Swenson had me envisioning myself riding a horse across the Mongolian Steppe in an episode a month ago.  Then, a listener suggested we interview Tim Finley about his experience in the Mongol Derby.  During that conversation, Tim told us how he got into endurance riding and what a great sport it was.  While we thought a hundred miles was way farther than we wanted to go in one stretch on a horse, Tim explained there were also "limited distance" and "beginner" rides. Next, Ranae and I were discussing the episodes and she suggested we talk to our friends, Dona and Paul Schilling, about their endurance riding experience.  What a great idea!  We knew Dona and Paul had been doing long rides for some time and would be an excellent source of information. So, we're going to take a break this week from the professional trainers and clinicians, (although they've been fun, haven't they?) and we talk with regular horse folks.  Paul and Dona stable their horses at a local stable, have day jobs and deal with horses just like most of the listeners of this show.  They offer a "real-life" perspective on endurance riding.  We discuss equipment, what it takes to condition the horse and what it takes to condition the rider.  And, they talk about some of the common pitfalls beginning riders fall victim to.  They even share a few of their own.

When Ashley Tomaszewski heard that there was such a thing as endurance, riding, and it was in Ontario, she was intrigued.  After lots of research and asking questions, she was prepared to start training for her first ride. It seems like it all paid off as Ashley and her mare Splash finished their first ride at 25 miles in second place! She was hooked! Ashley’s next goal was to complete a couple more 25-mile rides in 2015 to gauge how ready they were to attempt a 50-mile ride, which they completed as their  the last ride in 2015 and she beat a number of personal goals as well. Ashley’s goals for 2016 include improving her time on the 50s and doing some rides in the U.S. Listen to Ashley as she shares her love of endurance riding!
