I was going to include this in my next http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1165477-wipz-druid-mod-20-a-complete-overhaul/ for the animal forms, but it makes sense as a stand-alone mod.

Description
========
While riding a mount, and your mount is running, your Athletics skill will increase, just as if you're running on foot.
=====
Details
=====
This simple mod operates by running a quest that every two seconds checks if you are mounted, and if so, if your mount is running. If those two conditions are true, then your Athletics skill will tick up just as if you're running on foot.
=====
Install
=====
1. Copy the Athletics While Riding.esp file to your Oblivion\Data folder.
2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click 'Data Files', place a checkmark beside the Athletics While Riding.esp file. Or activate it with OBMM, Wrye Bash, or whatever your preferred mod manager is.
======
Uninstall
======
1. Uncheck the Athletics While Riding.esp.
2. Delete the Athletics While Riding.esp file from your Oblivion\Data folder.

You can do whatever you want with this mod but all I ask in return is that you give me credit if you distribute any part of this mod. I would also like to know what mods are including my work.
