Reply to "London Olympic Games - Marathon & Race Walk Routes"

I wonder whether Hugh counted his paces? I'd forgotten that he had bigger fish to fry at that Olympics.

Lest you worry about what to do if your measurement of the course is less than Hugh's, rest easy. He's measured with a lot of people and it is a rare thing for anyone to get a lesser measurement.

I remember when the two of us (David & Pete)were in Atlanta before the marathon measurement and we briefly talked about checking the track's lap length with a steel tape. At first it seemed like an attractive idea, but then I considered what we would do if we found a problem with time so short. I saw no positive alternatives, so concluded that it was already measured and best to let it be.
