The Long Riders' Guild

Long Rider Lisa Adshead has been elected as Veterinary Advisor for the Trec section of the British Horse Society

 

In 2005 Lisa and her husband Harry rode from their home in Wales to Jordan - please click here to go to their page on our website.

Recently Lisa was chosen to be the Veterinary Advisor for the TREC section of the British Horse Society.

TREC is a unique equestrian sport based on the French discipline "Le Trec". Introduced to Britain by the British Horse Society in 1998, TREC appeals to a variety of riders with all kinds of horses and ponies.

The competition is designed to test a horse/rider combination through a whole range of activities rather than focusing on one particular discipline. The sport requires versatility and training, combining the requirements of trail riding, with jumping and correct basic flatwork.

TREC comprises three phases, testing the partnership's ability to cope with an all-day ride across varied terrain, route finding, negotiating natural obstacles and hazards, while considering the welfare of the horse, respecting the countryside and enjoying all it has to offer.

For more information and this interesting sport, please go to this section of the British Horse Society's website.

Congratulations, Lisa!
