Homosapians run the furthest distance out of every animal. Besides intelligence, its the only other thing we are good at. Any animal who sweats in combination with using hemoglobin has the ability to run the furthest and longest. Horses are able to do very well (they are one of the few animals who sweat, just not as efficiently) but lose usually past 20 mile mark to a human who is actively trying to outrun it.

Some animals who are known for their top speeds or your pet dogs who run away from you seem like they can compare, but dogs are pathetic distance runners. An out of shape human being can catch any dog if they do not give up slowly trotting after it. The dog has to take significant break after too long a run. Most dogs will be beaten by a human in less then 2 miles of an attempted escape. Averages of course in all these examples. An immobilized human who is sick or dying won't catch a healthy fit dog ever, but a very typical human will eventually catch a dog, and even a horse.

Man and horse have been a crucial element of man's technological progression. It's a shame more people don't respect and treat these animals better.

Horses are very important in history.

What? My daughter's horse (we lease) lives better than a huge chunk of humans in the world. So do our dogs for that matter.

Any evidence that horses are treated poorly uniformly?

Why did you make it so specific?
Based on what you just said, Do you really believe there is no animal abuse because the horse you lease for your daughter is treated well. Serious what the fuck world do you live in.

Animal abuse comes in many forms. There is tons of evidence showcasing horses being abused. I think horses should be treated better for all they have given us.

So I suggest you turn off bait mode because you're treading in water that can make you look like real scum.

I have worked with blacksmiths and veterinarians on farms for years. Taking care of a horse is not an easy job. some people get a horse then can't afford to keep it's health and wellness properly. Other people just don't give a shit and let them starve to death or get infested with bugs that eat their flesh.

You'll see commercials on TV for cats and dogs that have been abused. Why not horses. Horses have done more for mankind than dogs and cats.

Riding a bear would be awesome. Had any army in history ridden bears, they'd have ruled the world until 1776.

It was cool and rainy that day.

Put the worlds elite runners up against the best horses on a sunny day in 70+ degree temps over 26.2+ miles and the horses won't stand a chance...like not even close. The gap widens as the mileage increases.

What would compel humans to do this is beyond me...but here we are today:

I'd rather race at 20 degrees than 80. Hot blooded I suppose.

Side note: that first dudes time was really good, given it wasn't a road course.

Another cool doc for people that are into really sick and twisted running challenges:

I once saw the article about the man v horse tape. The horse won. The guy died from internal damage.
