Reply to "Difference between cal and course surface"

Jim, I think state meets are the exception to all of this. State meets don't have to have a "fast" course in order to attract large numbers of teams. Invitationals during the season where a large percentage of the runners set PRs get a huge number of teams that come back year after year, because they have a "fast" course. Invitationals where kids don't set PRs, don't. That's just one of the big headwinds that will be encountered by any effort to get large numbers of HS XC course accurately measured. Cost, of course, is the other.
