Re: [RC] Best of America by Horseback - Kristi Schaaf

Different strokes for different folks. Often, people who trail ride at a walk 
can't understand why others would want to fly down the trail, missing out on 
the scenery and the conversation. I'm somewhere in the middle - don't like warp 
speed and don't like to putz along. I suppose that my 'middle of the road' pace 
might be engrained in me from my NATRC background. 

Speaking of long distances and a steady pace, has anyone seen the show "Running 
the Sahara" on Showtime? Three runners ran 4,500 miles (the equivalent of 170 
marathons) in 111 days (averaging 45 miles/day), with not a SINGLE day off. 
That's some crazy there! Fun fact: one of the runners (the well known endurance 
addict Charlie Engle) consumed 1,411 liters of Gatorade during the run.
