Lost in Hawaii

Richard Bolt recently returned from Hawaii and asked me about the time I got lost and accidently ran across the island of Maui.  I headed out on my run on a hot August morning planning to do 12 miles, but somehow ran on the wrong road and got myself turned around.  I didn't realize my mistake until I hit the ocean, on the wrong side of the island!  The run back was hot, windy and I was hurting the entire way.  My 12 mile run turned out to be a nearly epic 20 mile run in 90 degree heat with no water.  I guess the only good out of this is that it was a beautiful place to be lost.
