Reply to "Strange track configuration"

David Katz has worked with the Millrose Games and other big-time track events for years, and is RRTC’s most track-knowledgeable person. Here he is in Atlanta in 1996, checking out a “waterfall” start.

A removable curb takes up a lot of space when it’s not installed. Here are two shots of the Atlanta Olympic track curbing. Note the pins on each segment of curbing. They fit into corresponding sockets in the track surface. Each segment of curbing is numbered so that the pins and holes fit exactly.
