Kat is absolutely correct. The LD and 50's are different beast than the 
one day 100. The completion rate is a very good indicator - the wall 
seems to be at about 80 miles. The completion rates up to about 80 miles 
are close to the same when more distance is factored in. There is a big 
drop at about 80 miles.

The metabolic pull rate is also another indicator. It is about the same 
up to about 80 miles, while it is about 3 to 4 times higher for the one 
day 100.

The 100 is a different beast.
