Although the course is open from 6 am until 12 midnight, the 10 runners will takes short breaks throughout the day; 10 minutes here, 5 minutes there, maybe 2 or 3 times a day, depending upon the runner. However, what about their running shoes, do they ever take a rest? They sure do! After pounding the concrete pavement hour after hour, a short rest is welcomed. Here, just after almost a day of rain, some of the runners “rest” their shoes against the fence. You can just here the soles signing, ah, this feels good. They know they will soon be called upon to hit the pavement again so the “rest” is thoroughly enjoyed.
