Day two is when things get interesting with the obstacles in the marathon. You get to see different configurations of horses such as singles, pairs, for-in-hand, and even tandem (on in front of the other). There are ponies and larger wambloods.
The halloween decorations enhanced the course and the neighboring bamboo forest even provided for constuction material for barriers on the hazards.

Tandem team moves through the hazards.
There is a start and end for each hazard. The team is timed for speed and the goal is to finish in the shortest time. The overall marathon portion is timed also, but the goal is to finish within a predefined time.
