Next week I (potentially, can cut it down) have quite a heavy few days of travelling and general activity for new pony, and i'm not sure if it's too much

Thurs: 1/2 hour each way to go and XC school
Fri: around 1hr (rush hour) journey to friend's house to stay the night as we have an early start next morn...
Sat: around 2 1/2 hour journey... to the beach with school team!

Will also probs ride for 2 hours or so
Sun: again around 1 1/2 to 2hrs ride, then about 3 hours home to the yard.
He is fairly fit (not majorly) and is a v good traveller, but can be a little bit of a stresshead and this is my first time with him away overnight (twice!) and i'm not sure if it'll all be a bit much to have so much relocating

Or am i being silly?
 
I personally feel that it is a bit much. For 2 main reasons- You havnt had him very long and travelling/staying away may add extra stress. And also to do that much riding and travelling in a few days the pony would have to be pretty fit. Travelling takes alot out of them, as does xc schooling and riding on the beach. I would cut it down a bit IMO. But have fun!
 
Yea, that's what i was thinking really. Think i will cut out the Thurs trip (only got asked if i wanted to go today, and said i'd think about it!) and try and take it easy when at the beach. I do have the whole summer after all! Thanks
