Heidi, you are wasting your breath....I have learned from ridecamp that 
endurance is an "extreme" sport - one in which people die or are rendered 
comatose on a regular basis and in which evil parents often strap their 
children to the backs of unbroken stallions in an effort to see them stressed 
to near death.  To defend this is ludicrous.  I'm calling the ASPCA, the 
Children's Protective League, and Johnnie Cochran.  To quote Charlton Heston 
in that finest of films, Planet of the Apes........"IT'S A MADHOUSE!!!!!!  A 
MAD HOUSE!!!  lol
