On the BCN Marathon a few years ago, we elected to go down the Engine Branch backwards, so we could come back out again forwards, there being no winding hole at the end. Halfway along we met another participant who had gone in forwards and was now reversing back. Which side were we supposed to pass on? > but walking on a sidewalk baffles me.
