 Curious as to why there were so 
many more pulls for lameness on the 50 than on the 100..and that is taking into 
account the higher number of entries.  By 48 miles on the 100 there were 6 
pulls for lameness...on the 50 by the finish (50 miles) there were 22 pules for 
lameness. There were 29 entries on the 100 and 85 on the 50.Also looked up some 
ride results for the old dominion...which seems like it might be a comparable 
ride as far as footing goes (I'm sure I will be corrected if I am 
wrong!!) Also considerably lower pull rate 
for lameness.  Now I'm sure if I've got my numbers wrong I will be 
corrected and , being severely arithmetically impaired, I cannot do the math to 
figure out all the ratios etc....does anyone else find the number of lameness 
pulls puzzling?   
  
P.S. This is endurance related because it is 
interfering with my ride camp e-mail...in the past two weeks the number of 
e-mails I've been getting from solicitors has increase dramatically(I used to 
get 3 or 4 a day, now I'm getting 15 to 20)  Any ideas on how to make them 
go away?? (e-mail me privately if you do...)
