I wanted to walk an October half marathon. The Run Like Hell half marathon had a time limit of 3 hours, 30 minutes, which I could make with 16-minute miles. They encourage racing in a costume and it sounded like a blast. I timed myself the weekends before to be sure I was up to speed. I checked the final race instructions and took a glance at the race map online. Because I was going to be near the time limit, I wore my Camelbak Marathoner hydration vest and packed my own Clif bar snack, in case the water stations were closed up when I came through. While they started off being walker-friendly by greeting us as "runners and walkers," things swiftly went downhill.
