Gian Paolo Vallerini brought the mountain all the way to Redlands with a strong negative split Gian Paolo Vallerini came down out of Big Bear and into Redlands in 3:54:59, and he did it with a negative split: 1:54:03 for the second half after 2:00:56 for the first. Thats a smart, proud way to run this marathon, especially with the pace picking up as the course dropped toward the foothills. His day really came alive through the big descent, with that third quarter clicking by in 54:05. After the cold early start up on the mountain, he kept the momentum rolling and finished with a strong run down to the line.
