at ` high speed ` you cannot look around and marvel at the features of the system
if you want to race - enter " tough mudder " challenges or other events of a similar nature
thats all i have to say

Some people just do stuff for fun. I love the outdoors, whether climbing, caving, cycling, walking (although I haven't done the last two for some time).
Whether moving fast or slow, marvelling at gypsum crystals, a stonking phreatic, or staring blankly at a grotty limestone wall (not all passages are pretty - get the shit bits over with, or use them as an exercise in yin/yang?)
I do not wish to enter a tough mudder event. They look awfully contrived and you have to pay for the pleasure. I don't especially want to go "SPEED CAVING" either, merely starting a discussion, thank you for your valuable insight and contribution.
