Today was my first day back to work as required by the work rest ratio for firefighters---so I went in thinking I'd be in the office most of the day.
One of my range cons came in and invited me to a meeting with permittees on an allotment on horseback. How do you pass that up? Well I didn't---but it was a tough day. I have only taken one short horseback ride this year and that was in April. When I got home I could barely walk and my back still hurts like H _ _ _.
My boss laughed when he saw me walking into the office late today---he did the same thing a week ago. One of my grandfathers favorite sayings was "NOTHING IS AS EASY AS IT APPEARS AT FIRST GLANCE." Truer words were never spake when it comes to riding horses---long distances=sore muscles.

I read once how many calories you burn per hour riding a horse, and it's almost as many as if you did full cardio for an hour...crazy!

If that is true i should have been dead instead of just sore.
It's because you use so many muscles while riding. I believe it. That being said, I need to get me a horse!
lol
