Reply to "New study on Boston "legality""

Anything allowing a committee to decide is likely to become political.

I like the existing, simple rules for record legality. Our running club's age graded competition had a race with over 400' of drop in 5 miles. The start was so steep that you had to brake a good bit and heaven help if you tripped going flat out. It was so fast that missing that one race put you at a significant disadvantage. We passed a rule that courses in the competition had to be record eligible. That stopped others from doing the same thing or worse to boost participation.
