Reply to "MapMyRun giving measurers fits"

I always use Google Earth to pre-measure so I have an idea on the length of the course. After measuring the course I know where the start and finish line are I will re do the measurement so that I can get an elevation chart for the race director. I will usually have 3.11 miles most of the time. Sometime I get 3.12 miles but not often. To get it that close you really have to pay attention to the bends in the road and you just have to be really careful in order to get the shortest route. There is no way you can take the corners on Google earth like you can when you are riding a bike.
