<< I agree here, too. However, our Vets don't want "enhanced performance" as
you describe it here. See, they feel that implies that a competitor has an
advantage over one who chooses not to supplement. My feeling is that
supplementation is necessary to help prevent the inherent harm done by
competing in endurance. But, you can possibly break the "drug" rule by
doing this. >>
In horseracing we have a lot of folks who choose not to feed andything
worthwhile and to keep their horses as skinny as greyhounds. They lose a lot
of races and cripple a lot of horses with this subpar nutrition--meanwhile,
calling my guys' horses "fat". I love to beat these morons. Love it.
Sounds like the vets you describe are practicing affirmative action combined
with outcome-based "racing". Absurd. Rename the sport "Endurance Gathering.
