The whole speed requirement thing is promoting the wrong idea, in my 
opinion.  If someone wants to promote flat-track 100 mile races, let them 
call it something else.  Endurance is all about technical trails that 
challenge the rider's skill in using his horse to its best advantage, 
depending on the conditions of the trail as they go along.
