Laney-
I also finished Castle Rock on the modified, humane trail in. I walked at least
half of the ride. I am very thankful that Porter came thru wonderfully. Porter
finished with all B's. I agree with you - it is very important to plan your
ride strategy accordingly for this ride. This was my 4th completion on the 50,
and I have also completed the 70. I think all of the people new to this ride
had a tougher time than we did.
Lots of accolades need to be given for the exceptional veterinarian support. It
was so important to have skilled endurance vet's at this ride. They were very
busy all day. Dr. Jim Steere (heaad vet), Dr. Mike Tomlinson, Dr. Kessinger, Dr.
Bruce, Dr. Paul McEvoy, and the other professional's(I don't have all of their
names) were working under a considerable stress - which takes any "fun" out of
the day. Also thanks to all the other support people that were taking P&R's and
just generally helping out.
I hope that this ride does not discourage the McCreary's from hosting future
rides. They always put on a beautiful, well-run event. Unfortunately Mother
Nature was not cooperative this year.
I am giving Porter a month off for his hard work - and am looking forward to our
next ride!
