📋 About This Mod
This mod allows infinitely sprinting on a horse without consuming any stamina, while on a road, while still consuming stamina when off-road (e.g. in the fields) - pretty much like in The Witcher 3. Makes things like playing with fast-travel disabled or just riding horses for immersion less painful!
Skyrim AE is currently fully supported, but Skyrim SE support is untested - let me know if it works or not ;)
Recommendations:
While not required, Horse Stamina HUD mod is highly recommended so that you can see your horse's stamina.
