Midwest Distance Driving Association is the sanctioning organization for competitive distance driving in the Upper Midwest. Distance driving is a fun and informal veterinarian-supervised test of equine (horse, pony, mini, mule, zebra…) and driver over a natural trail. Events range from 6 to 25 miles. The goal is to complete the course in the allotted time with the least wear and tear on your horse. Horses are scored for parameters such as pulse, respiration, soreness, and fatigue. Horsemanship is not judged and “fancy” is completely optional. See the files section for more information and upcoming events!
