Story told by HYP:

I ran to the start from home.  Hashed a little and got separated with SOlo (help me!)
 
Solo was afraid to get wet but I swung on vines and hopped on rocks across the back-side 
of the canal.  SUBJECT HEADING.  So I crossed the bridge once I ran to it.
 
For a long time, I saw more checks and double-cross arrows than all marks put together.
 
I wound up off trail and ventured to a construction site/big white Church.  Back on road 
to the last seen mark - wala!  I run into a big check.  I thought this was a good thing.  
Found a single mark way in woods - this sent me in bad direction but that didn't stop me.  
I got water at Arena Gymnastics on Alexander Road Plaza.
 
Back Back Back via road to this check, then I was going to bag it and go home, but I saw the 
real trail now, and followed it - to that construction site/Big White CHURCH!!!!!!
 
The last deli-cut set I was on I landed at an ON-IN that was meant only for me - no beer, 
and the hare decided to let the hashers off the hook and send them elsewhere.
 
Did this happen again?  Did I find Deli-Cut trail that even Deli-Cut abandoned?
 
Finally, I did decide to run home, took CLarksville to KC Prime (got water).  
 
Went across the mall to save time but then had to cross traffic - and I was cramping up worse than Todd Pinkston - I crossed 10 lanes of Route 1/95 with a minor pause on concrete Jersey Barrier in the middle (I was waiting for the LAW, never showed Whew! but I had excuses ready if they did) and then was able to onramp 95 and get off in industrial land to short cut home.  Good thing I didn't have to cross 12 lanes of highway - I may not be Emailing this.
 
I got home at 6:30.
