As I mentioned to steph, this was the PERFECT ride for the habitual  
turtle. A 21st place finish could have been achieved by starting at  
7am with everyone, and leisurely strolling through the first 33km  
loop. This loop went right through the center of town. A coffee shop,  
bistro, lunch ... a bit of visiting etc. and one could have still  
been on the first loop when those nasty first to finish guys came  
across the line. I would have then been stopped at my next (first:)  
gate and given last place. piece of cake -- hey, I could have had  
that, too, on my stroll through town:)

(of course, it's REALLY hard to go that slow - @3km/hr or so ... I  
doubt that my horse would be too stressed though as there looked to  
be quite a lot of forage along the trail)
