AM - Since i had some hours to kill in Provo, i started my run going backwards on the Halloween Half course.  (It turns out that its a bit hazardous to run against the grain when a race of that magnitude is taking place.  Tons of runners and a lot of them don't see you coming until its almost too late.)  I did my best not to be a menace, jumping off into the weeds and rocks at times.   When i hit the Vivian park area, i diverted for a half mile up the other canyon to increase my mileage then turned came back and joined up with the racers going in the right direction.  (And no i wasn't a bandit, i didn't take any of the drinks at the water stops... )  Was able to pick up the pace on the way back, but it was tough working thru everyone on the crowded trail.

(10:17, 8:00, 8:00, 8:08, 7:56, 7:37, 8:13, 6:57, 7:08, 6:49, 6:50, 6:50, 6:49, 6:48, 2:25)

STINK! I wish I would've kept a better look out for you. The girl I was running with was getting nervous about the people running up the trail and finally asked me "are those people done and running back up here to find their friends?!?" I told her that at 1:09 there was NO way they had finished and come all that way back - the first finishers were probably just about done. That made her feel better, so it would've been nice to run into you and have you tell her that as well - she wasn't THAT slow! :)
