<< The horse's body is a very complex chemical/physical system, which is
different from the human body. The question we should be addressing is not
how long it takes X to happen, but what changes in the system are likely to
result from X - and it our case of interst while the horse is running a 100
mile ride. If this is being academic, then guilty as charged.

Just as I suspected. Rather than seek an answer to a single question, we
must, as academics, seek answers to all the questions we can think of--and,
as per your other post, leave it to the people who get paid to do it, while
we go riding--at the same time, though, making pronouncements about things we
know nothing about.
This is my last post here, folks. I had an MI Saturday night and it will be a
while before things come right again. It's been fun, but I have to focus on
the things I get paid for for a while.
