That is one of the most honest assessments I have seen. It is yet 
another level of pain. It's going on when you would rather not. It's 
reaching down and finding something extra to leave the vet check when 
you could call it a day. There is no magic potion that will help. It is 
the desire to do it and the guts to make it happen. If you don't want to 
endure the pain, don't sign up for a100. However, if you want to 
experience a high that you have never experience before on horse back 
then you want to do a 100. However, it doesn't come free. The last free 
lunch you got was from you momma.
