Endurance is about strategy, with the top athletes knowing that a course of 100 to 160km is best handled in the individual phases of the race.
In essence, the strategic rider treats the four phases of a 160km endurance competition individually; they focus on each 40km phase, completing the mandatory veterinarian inspections, without losing sight of the race’s finish line.
Julia Montagne of France is currently sitting on top of the FEI World Endurance rankings, with a comfortable lead in the point standings.
