To hack to a mini ODE?
I'm thinking this is a no go but if I cant get any transport then its my only option - I really want to go!
Its in 14 weeks and my horse is currently not fit enough for the job - can probably hack 3 hours in mainly walk with the odd trot and canter at the mo. Jumping once a week 20 mins, schooling twice a week and hacking weekends.
Will increase the workload to get fitter but do you think this is possible - not forgetting she will have to hack back too after xc. Its only 70cms so not too demanding. Would estimate 4 hours hacking in total.
It would only be 4 miles straight down the road but its a very busy a road and there would be a m/way junction to negotiate too!
Advices welcome.
