Reply to "Taping a Track"

Bob,

I was thinking more about my high school track, which was egg-shaped, when I was wondering about W1 and W2. If the track is a normal shape, and W1 and W2 are within even a couple meters, the track-length difference is going to be trivial and will be an underestimate anyway. For my high school track though, the difference between W1 and W2 was probably 15-20 meters.

I am curious about finding the center of the turn. A lot of things that seem simple in theory and on paper turn out to be a disaster when you actually try to do them for real. Sounds like this might be one of those. I'm going to give it a try next spring.
