Tevis Cup 2022- Biggest 100 Mile- 24 Hour Horse Endurance Ride
This video has first hand coverage from Tevis Cup 2022. The biggest and most difficult 100 mile 24 Hour Horse Endurance Ride in the US and the World.
Sue Basham's son Paul and I crewed for Sue and her amazing horse, Kismet Cognac, (KC).
The Tevis cup ride runs along 100 mostly rugged and remote miles of the Western States Trail, from Truckee CA to Auburn CA, finishing at McCann Stadium at the Auburn Fairgrounds.
There were 131 Riders and Horses starting the ride. 72 were pulled. The 72 pulls include 14 who Rider Optioned out. Sue made the decision to do that at Foresthill, mile 68. Her mare, KC, had passed every vet check but Sue felt that KC was not 100% herself and they have already successfully completed 6 Tevis Cups together.
There are highlights from Ride Camp, Robie Equestrian Park South of Truckee CA, Robinson Flat and Foresthill Vet checks and 1 Hour Holds, Ride Finish, Best Condition competition and Awards Banquet.

Hello, I am a child who is doing horse riding for some years and i have my own horse. I was thinking what discipline i should choose and i really love endurance and im training for it. Though i have a question, is there like an age limit for a person and when they could do an endurance race ride because i want to try and compete. (sorry if my English is bad im from Europe where we speak a different language)

Hi Elizabeta, The American Endurance Riders Conference, one of the main organizations which sanctions endurance rides (competitions) in the US has a number of rules regarding junior and young riders. The Tevis Cup has its own separate rules regarding junior riders, having sponsors who ride with them the full 100 miles. Organizers of the sport in the US are very enthusiastic and supportive of younger riders getting into the sport! International rides in countries outside of the US may have different rules and age cut offs so you will need to look into that depending on what country you are in! Junior riders in AERC events are those who are under age 16 at the start of the ride season for the year you are participating. Reach out to the AERC.ORG or check out their rules and Regulations online! Let me know if you have other questions!

This is wrong. ... why dont these riders run 100miles? Why must these horses carry these hypocrites over 100miles in 24hrs?

I understand your concern for the horses, but the horse athletes that engage in the endurance sport are exceptionally trained and conditioned for the sport and are very well loved and cared for by their rider/partners. This is at least my opinion based on attendance and crewing at numerous endurance rides for the past 12 years!

Because dear, this is a celebration, Tough but exiting and enjoyable for both horse and rider, demonstrating the incredible unity between two very different species and what your ancestors and horses done together for 1000s of years.

My endurance horses are athletes, they love it, find it exciting just like we all do. If you were in the sport.and around the wonderful atmosphere, you would just get it, no fear or doubt.

You act as if we just sit there
I hope to not sound demeaning or rude but do the horses enjoy this? Are they taken care of and are they treated well? Thanks

Hello! Everyone who has trained a horse for any specific sport wonders if the horse enjoys what they are doing. If left completely to their own devices they probably would be happy with their herd out in the pasture. But they also seem to enjoy the attention from their rider/owner when we bring them in to have a lesson or a conditioning ride out on the trail. All of the Endurance riders I have met and been on a crew for, take meticulous care of their horses. They must be well trained, conditioned and fed in order to carry the rider any distance. During the ride event their are many vet checks where the horses are looked at and they must pass all of the vet check requirements before continuing on in the ride. Their care is of utmost importance! 😊🐴

Some horses love endurance rides, others not so much. To do a ride like this takes months of training/conditioning. Even the shorter 50 mile rides take a lot of miles in the saddle to condition both horse and rider. If the horse doesn't enjoy the work, the rider will know by the attitude and behavior of the horse, and in most cases, the horse will not be ridden in these rides. (As with any sport, there are always a few bad apples) I've never ridden in the Tevis, but I have done quite a few of the 50 mile rides in my younger years. My horses loved it. We were always asking our horses to slow down, not speed up. And yes, the horses are well cared for. They also have to pass veterinarian checks to even be allowed to start the ride, then must also pass additional checks along the route. If a vet finds the horse is lame or unfit to continue, they are not allowed to continue. There are mandatory breaks at the vet checks to allow the horse a chance to rest a bit, and to eat. The Tevis Cup is the most difficult ride--think if it as the Super Bowl of Endurance riding.

@@lynettepierce thanks so much for your thoughts! You are absolutely correct in that it takes years of conditioning and training for the endurance sport as is true for any other riding sport! Tevis Cup and AERC sanctioned rides require the horse to be a minimum of 6 years old to compete in the 100 mile distance. It’s great that you were able to do endurance rides with your horses! How exciting! 💜😊🐴
