Our 'training' routes are all 5-6 miles and I started by walking with periods of trot and we are now trotting with periods of walk and short canters. I've got Endomondo on my phone and am finding it very informative - not only can I track distance and speed but I can see whether I'm managing to attain a steady pace - Raf has been very keen recently and I've been struggling to get him to trot at a sensible speed, but I think I'm winning. At the moment we're doing an average speed of just over 6 miles an hour over our route. How does that sound? I can't really canter more as a lot of the route is on roads. We're only aiming to start with pleasure rides and maybe some small competitive rides towards the end of the season. That was our aim last year as well, but awful summer followed by a lameness issue meant that we only managed to do two rides the whole seaons.
