Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

Thank you to everyone who has e-mailed such wonderful words of support and 
encouragement both through ridecamp and privately.  The endurance community is 
wonderful and I appreciate that we have such a wonderful forum to reach each 
other.

In answer to Ed's questions, the lameness pulls have split between the left 
and right legs and none of them have been serious injuries (as far as I knew at 
the time).  There did not seem to be any pattern of lameness.  As a matter of 
fact, Zeke actually won best condition at two of his four 100 mile 
completions this year and obviously looked awesome trotting at the finish.  
When he has 
been pulled this year it was once in his left leg and once for his right leg, 
but one of those times (in Wisconsin) two vets disagreed about which leg it 
was.  Regardless, both times he was completely sound by the time he got home.  
I 
had the vet check him out each time and there was a mention of early ringbone 
but the vet thought it was still a few years off as far as affecting his 
career.  

Thanks again for the support and kind words.  Sam
