Reply to "Parking Lot Road Courses"

Despite the interest in the measurement and validity of a road course in a parking lot, what caught my eyes was the subject line in Ryan’s reply to Gene, which said; Subject: RE: Rock & Roll record attempt.

Haile Gebrselassie, Ethiopian, is making his U.S. road racing debut at the P.F. Chang’s Rock ‘n Roll Marathon in Arizona, attempting a World Record for the Half Marathon running the second half of the full marathon course. The two-time Olympic Gold Medalist in the 10,000, Atlanta in 1996 and Sydney in 2000, is going after the current 59:16 World Record best time.

This is an exciting and unique event for road racing. How are event organizers coordinating such a performance?
