Reply to "Certifying intermediate splits"

In 1988 I asked A C Linnerud to certify standard intermediate distances in the Camp Lejeune Halfmarathon, and since then I and many others have established many NC state records at these distances while running a halfmarathon.

In 2002 I measured a course near my home, Run for Records, with nine certified distances up to the marathon. The course was along a line of only 3 km and certification required only duplicate rides along this line. Susie Kluttz set several state records and the current 12-km national age-group record for 65-69 on this course.

In races on these courses there was only a small team of timers that moved from one certified point to another at planned times.
