Reply to "Purpose of the SCPF"

Good point, Gene. Good explanation, Bob. I appreciate this.

I have done only one validation measurement. It was for a 12K where pending records had been set. My measurement, without the SCPF, of course, came within a few inches of 12K. If my measurement was accurate, the certified course was about 39 feet long. Not a big deal, I suppose.

This course was certified by one of the most meticulous measurers I know of. I would bet that most courses he has measured would validate with equal accuracy. Until a marathon he measured experiences something like the leader tripping, falling, and being passed in the final 138 feet, though, I agree no one should read too much into it
