Cap City Half-Marathon

Pete, I noticed that you certified the Cap City Half Marathon course that raced this weekend. I ran the 5K, but I don't believe that the 5K course was certified.

I was suspicious of the 5K course distance since it was able to use the exact same start and finish as the Half marathon, and the course ran neatly through downtown Columbus with no adjustable turn-around point . . . just a coincidence?

So I did a rough check on google earth and found it to be at least 50m too long. It seems whenever there are 2 race distances on the same day, the main event gets a good measurement, but the shorter race just kind of falls where it lays.

What do you think?
