Reply to "Turn-around or longer course"

Mark, As a long time runner I do not like turn arounds but I think I would rather have one than the course be 20 meters long. At a 6:00 pace that equals about 4.7 seconds so would it take around 4.7 seconds to go around a turn around and get back up to speed? I think it might take a little less time but than how much more energy to get back up to speed? I would say as a runner no more than 5 meters long but as a measurer I would want the race at the correct distance and if that means a turn around so be it.
