[RC] CRI - Bruce Weary DC

I think I would actually be more in support of mandatory CRI's done throughout the ride, in that it would clearly be more effective in detecting fatigue and exhaustion all day long, including the finish line than taking a simple pulse rate. It would have ramifications, though. Such as, it would modify the definition of "fit to continue," if mandatory. I'm sure other complications would arise I haven't thought of, but I believe in the CRI. And I think we even have *data* regarding it's use and effectiveness. The question is, will the data be believed, or discarded as contradictory to previously held opinion? This whole "welfare thang" ain't easy. Dr Q
