We did all the miles together just her and I, and now when I look at that medal not only do I see the cause we helped, I also remember all those miles together with her.   Just as significant, you could choose to do the miles solo and have it represent your dedication to getting out their and logging your miles.   <br /> </h2> <h2><span style="color:#843fa1"><b>Do I have to do all 25 miles all at once? </b></span> No, you can do a mile per day or any combination of days/miles to equal 25 miles.  Or if you or your horse are ready for it, maybe get a group of friends together and do a longer walk or ride as a group dedicated to this cause, then when you look at the medal you will see not only the many foals you have helped, you will also remember that ride/walk with your friend(s). <br /> </h2> <h2><span style="color:#843fa1"><b>What is the VALOR 25 Challenge?</b> </span> You choose to log either your hours working with your horse or miles.  We will send you a beautiful custom medal with the horse sized neck ribbon, an embroidered patch and a concho.</h2> <h2><span style="color:#843fa1"><b>What counts for hours? </b></span>Not chores!
