From the Star Tribune:

He got turned around and mistakenly returned to the finish area

I bet he was rather hypothermic at this point. Cold makes you stupid.

I think I'd rather stay home and keep my toes. Sure doesn't sound like fun.

My only question, was it worth it?
Darwin will eventually catch up with him...
