I'm not down with people placing themselves in corrals they have no business in >:[ - I always line up further back than I end up placing. Today I was all the way at the back, because at gun time, I was still in line for the loo, *g* (but there was lots of time with over 3000 runners).
I spent the first miserable mile and a half on a narrow, very congested trail alternately shuffling along getting more and more upset and sprinting like mad to get somewhere. Then the next 2 miles going about 15 seconds per mile faster than my intended pace to make up for it. :/
Not just walked through it, but stopped outright and had a cup of tea (yes, tea. That's one thing the race folks do here that I love. Warm, very sweet tea at the water stops) I'm sorry for the circumstances, but it sounds funny/actually kind of lovely that you stopped for a cup of tea (I get that it wasn't).
Ach, also sorry about the tailbone injury - that's one of the worst injuries I've experienced D:
