Reply to "Certifying a course to be run on a track"

Some high school tracks may not be very accurate. Plus, you may not know if it was surveyed to have a curb( or not). Therefore I would suggest that the course be measured as if it were a road course using the bike method.

Use cones (only really needed on the turns) and measure 30 cm out.

It should be noted that with track measurements, you should measure 30 cm out if there is a curb but only 20 cm out if there is no curb. Cones are not a replacement for a curb and should be placed on the inner white line if a track if it was not measured for a curb.

But with road measuring, we do not differentiate between curbs and cones!
