TREC Competition 2009

I discovered TREC Competitions last year. What great fun. It is a 2 day event. The 1st day is trail riding with just a map and your compass. It is timed about 6 miles takes about 2 - 3 hrs. The 2nd day is devoted to an obstacle course with up to 16 obstacles to do in a set time. The 2nd part of the day is Master of Gaits, which is to demostrate how well you can control your horse @ the walk and canter. Your scores for the 2 days events is combined and the one with the best score wins. We were lucky to get 2nd place in our 1st competition. Really looking forward to doing it this fall.
