RE: [RC] re: 100 milers - Mcgann, BarbaraCindy, I did reply to you yesterday, but I was NOT the one who listed her record. Not sure who that was, as I delete the posts almost as soon as they come in, but it wasn't me. Compared to the 2 of you who were trading records back and forth, mine would be insignificant (3800 miles in 25 years, 0 100's (attempted Big Horn in 78 or 79?, pulled at 85 miles), 0 marathons, 0 half races - heck, I don't even like to walk around the block - that's why I buy horses!) Barbara McGann -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cindy Collins Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 18:29 To: Ibiteraaarr@xxxxxxx Cc: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [RC] re: 100 milers Well, since I am now an arrogant ***** who you think is flaunting her record, who hasn't helped put on a ride, and who hasn't mentored numerous new riders, I concede the floor and allow you to win by insult (Steph, you are NOT included in this...I appreciated your tact and thoughtfulness even though we disagree). I listed my record as a tongue-in-cheek statement because Barbara McGann listed hers...Yes, it does hurt very much that in a sport I have given so much to, and have gotten so many life long rewards from, my convictions about the sport are scorned, twisted and belittled. Even when I try to joke, it is turned back on me. A dear friend just emailed me and told me to quit hurting myself by trying to get people to listen to what I am trying to convey about my belief in "endurance" as a sport. She is, of course, correct. We have lost every single battle to hold on to the integrity of "endurance" the founders of this sport envisioned. It will continue. For those of you who listened and thoughtfully agreed, or disagreed, you are appreciated.
