Run Course Aid Stations

 So with the new run course I was checking out the course maps.  Wow, holly turnarounds.  Something like 15 U-turns.  But I was wondering how that will impact the run aid stations.  I have no problem crossing the street to get a water, or whatever I need.  Assuming the aid stations are accessable from both directions of running, that is a lot of oppurtunities for aid, and slowing down.  Either way the aid stations will not be at the typical 1 mile marks.  I'm not sure how I'm going to handle this.  I was plannign on 15 walking steps at each aid station/every mile.  Oh course it will be great to have more aid oppurtunities, but which ones will I hit?  In IMAZ I had a good run basically fueling off of feel, I guesss I'll do the same again.  

Food for thought.
