On request the multiday day vs. single day  rides were analyzed again 
using a different criteria for inclusion in the multiday category. In a 
previous analysis ride times of horses that did two or more days in a 
pioneer ride were compared with single day ride times.  There was some 
concern that the "two or more day" criteria did not reflect the multiday 
riders.

In this analysis only horses that completed ALL days in a pioneer ride 
were considered.

In a nutshell, the results turned out to be almost identical to the 
first analysis. The multiday riders ( defined by finishing all days of a 
pioneer ride) were going about 4.2% faster (6.95 vs. 6.68 mph) on the 
average than their counterparts in single day rides.
