Reply to "Decimal accuracy of course form"

Tom, first, welcome to course measurement!!

It never hurts to take a step away from your data from a few hours or even overnight when things don't add up.

To your question (I may start and argument with my suggestion) but this issue would a moot point if the course is measured metric, as 42.195km with a KM constant. Marathon and Half should be measured metric, then you wouldn't need to do this conversion and the decimal places wouldn't be an issue.

The only courses I measure with an imperial constant is an imperial course, 1-mile, 10-mile etc.
