2016.... Tracking Challenge( hours -ridden/inhand) add your photos as well

[newforest]

If you want to.
I found it interesting to look back that I spend just as much time riding as I do inhand. I enjoy both so makes sense


@Stamper I doubt a 16" will fit. You could find the length way too long. A 15" is the max mine might take western.

@squidsin please do a running total if you can, makes it much easier to keep track

I jumped 85cm yesterday! Nothing to do with this challenge, just a little boast as I am pleased with me and Rox!

 

[horseandgoatmom]

AWESOME WELL DONE!!!

 

[squidsin]

Thank you!

Is it too late to join in with this? And am I right in thinking that it isn't just hacking but all riding (ie schooling too)?
If so I have got off to a fairly good start for the year this week. Two schooling sessions - one 30 minutes and one 20 minutes walk and trot. and one 1 hr 45 minute hack - in the dark and mud and wet so mainly walk but with a little bit of trot. That makes my total for the year so far 2 hours 35 minutes (please tell me if I'm doing this wrong...)

Okay so I chickened out of taking ale for a proper hack today as the weather was terrible and that makes me nervous I rode in the school and had a canter, then took him for a very short hack. But we did accomplish one thing. Walking through this and then back through it again. Something like this is very scary to me as I just think ale will spin. But he was really good. I know its not much but we did something


Totals
Hack in hand 20mins
Ridden in school 1hour 10mins

[MrA]

Not too late at all @sophie33

I think we are trying to get people to split their riding under different categories of ridden hacking and schooling and in hand hacking and schooling

Aha! Okay thanks Ale - mine was all ridden this week. And going through that flooded bit of road was not a small achievement that is impressive!

@horseandgoatmom sadly my country does this, known as fly tipping.

??? not sure what you mean
I looks like garbage that has been dumped?

 

[Kite_Rider]

Ridden: 2 hours (schooling)
Hacking: 4 miles
Farrier out Sat so hopefully a few more hacking miles soon.

Ridden 2 hours 40 mins
Hacking 4 miles

I am counting ridden as anything we do at the yard and hacking separate is that how it works please? Or should I be just adding up the total amount as in hacking ridden time not miles?

Ale well done it doesn't matter what it means to anyone else hun, if it's an achievement for you then it's worth congratulations.
Awwww bless him, Belle has to investigate any puddle, no matter how small/big, she loves nothing more than admiring herself in the lovely clear ones and splashing about in the big ones, we had a ford we used to have to hack through which she loved to 'play' in but we don't here at this yard and I do miss it.
