The aim of this study was to document training strategies used by experienced trainers of the Icelandic pace racing horse. Data were obtained using a questionnaire, to which responses were received from nine trainers on the world ranking list in 250 m pace races and with a minimum of 12 years of experience of pace training. Training was commenced at an age of 5.4±1.0 years and the average time to achieve competitive condition was estimated to be 1.9±0.8 years. Horses were trained almost every day and the trainers described a variety of training methods. Interval training appeared to be common, while training at pace was performed less than twice per week. Mental aspects seemed to be a challenge for performance.
