Reply to "A Pretty Good Explanation"

kevinplucasMember

The education of the general running public is continuous. Like so many of the news stories missing the correct terminology that is common to most measurers. The Rock n’ Roll Marathon Series’ Running GPS vs Certified Courses explanation misses a few of finer points; Step 3, A certified, experienced cyclist… - should say anyone following the Manual procedures., Step 4, …two readings are the same. – should read 2 measurements should agree within 0.08%. and Fun Facts, The Jones-Oerth… - should be JR Counter.

These little description errors are good opportunities to clarify the course measurement process and clear up any miss interpretations. At least the Rock n’ Roll Marathon Series didn’t say courses are “sanctioned”. How often does that still happen?
