I am still deciding on if I want to do it with more than one horse. The first year I did it I spent most of the 100 miles handwalking Jovi. It turned out to be fabulous for his training and went a long way towards making him a safe and reliable and pretty trustworthy mount. The second time my goal was to ride him the entire 100 miles. I think it would be a great goal for me to sign up with Saint and\/or Cowboy to help get them brought along.<\/p>\n<p>For those that don&#8217;t know what the VT is, here is a description along with a link if you&#8217;d like to sign up:<\/p>\n<p>The Virtual Tevis 100 mile event offers a number of benefits beyond just completing a\u00a0 100-mile course:<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"3:1-3:18\"><strong>Accessibility:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-sourcepos=\"5:1-6:0\">\n<li data-sourcepos=\"5:1-6:0\"><strong>Open to all:<\/strong> Whether you ride a horse or not, the virtual event has separate riding and non-riding divisions <a class=\"traceable-link\" href=\"https:\/\/teviscup.org\/virtual-tevis-cup-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/teviscup.org\/virtual-tevis-cup-2024\/<\/a>.
