Re: [RC] Poor Showing at WEC---cross posted - Elizabeth Walker

Jan has my complete admiration and awe. She is much, much tougher than I could ever hope to be (you bet I would have been calling for the medics).

Commendable? That doesn't say enough. Incredible is more like it.

It was commendable for Jan to go on. Lesser riders would have stayed at the check, but she went on.

how very true. Jan has bruises (in the shape of horseshoes) in multiple places - she's on antibiotics as the cuts and scrapes are beginning to become infected - she got back on her horse in the dark with the help of her team-mate and rode another 8 hours to the finish. She is as tough as any endurance rider in the world, as game, and as competative. A lesser rider would have been medivac'd out from where the crash happened.
