Reply to "Elevations above Sea Level"

I'm lazy, and the easiest thing to do is pop in the TopoUSA CD and look it up that way. I don't lose much sleep over any possible innacuracy - I often question the usefulness of the start/finish/highest/lowest elevation figures anyway - I'm sure the average runners never sees them, although for the few rare times a record is set they are necessary. A course profile tells potential participants a lot more about the course than raw figures, unless it's to indicate that the course is so far above sea-level that getting proper levels of oxygen may be a factor.
