Reply to "Measuring the Equinox Marathon"

The problem with taping is that the course is likely to change a bit every year. If taping is attempted, it would be prudent to include a number of enorute reference points. That way if the course changes, only the section between two reference points needs to be remeasured.

This potential problem is not unique to taping. Anyone who measures a long course and doesn't include enroute reference points will regret it when race management changes the route a bit for next year's race.
