Is The RunningLane Course 5K? Or Is It Short?

What are your situations that you used hand tape instead of the Jones Counter? Does RI have language on course measuring - such as how close to measure to course boundaries? If not, how are you handling that process?

The course I helped measure was a dual meet type course and had a couple of insane inclines and small stream crossing.

For the other courses I mention I believe they were done entirely with the jones counter. They used the standard road racing measurement guidelines measuring the tangents of the course.

That makes sense but doesn't equate since that portion of the course is taken away by the fans standing on the lines leaning out on the course to cheer take photos/video.

Nico was all out in both his 14:28s. The narrative that he would’ve run so close to German’s record and not break it so he can save energy is silly. He won by 25 seconds. He wanted to conserve energy, he could’ve run a lot slower.

Because obviously you know how he felt way better than he does.

Dude. HE SAID he wasn’t holding back. Therefore, he was all out. Next?

You realize he destroyed a 3:53 miler in the final 2000m at FootLocker, right? Twice. And Webb ran 1:47/3:53 without super shoes.

Webb would’ve gotten destroyed by Newbury in cross country. And then, he would be destroyed them in track same as he did Ritz.

If that’s the argument— I’ll play.

You realize Riley Hough beat Hobbs Kessler? Hobbs ran 3:34 1500.

Yep. Both ran 14:49 on the same course Ritz ran 14:10.

Lmk if those NB boys run 3:53.

Anyone who doesn't see all those NP top four under 13:50 on the track is a dunce.

Pull up those results, neither of them ran faster?

Making up facts is sad. Jennas PR came from here. I know you want your time to count but sorry man!

Right here you dunce. 15:34 for Hutchins, 14:15 for Wachtel. Idk what’s more sad, that you’re a middle aged man arguing with a 17 year old about high school running or that you pack the wherewithal to verify your facts before your attacks on said 17 year old.

I noticed they hit 2 Miles in 9:41? Off of that pace they would have to crank a 4:22 final mile to run a 14:03 3 Mile and Lex and Leo would have run a 4:24 final mile to run the stated 14:05. With that being said we are talking a final 1.11 Mile in 4:22 and 4:24 which means the 3 cranked out 3:56, 3:58, and 3:58 for the final mile. I am seeing this a lot with courses for example Louisville on the college side I ran 29:05 for 10,000m and ran 24:51 at Louisville and a bunch of D3 guys with 29:50 to 30:20 10,000m bests are cracking 24 on that course? I also notice they are altering courses makinng them basically tracks on a golf course to almost clean out the cabinet and get rid of the expiered food being older records.

It's so sad we do this every year.

People, get out of your basements and cubicles and go to the race yourself and run the course.

It's open to everyone.

It's a 5km.

It's been noted about a dozen times in these threads that the split was for 2.1 miles.

That wasn’t 2 mile, it was 2.1. Announcers had it wrong. They set split up at 2.1 to calculate last mile split. Go to the live results page if you don’t believe me.

You never know.

When they go out in 4:26 and run 8:58 at 2 miles, 13:37 at 3 miles, they're blazing.

But that 25 seconds from 3 miles to 3.1 miles, even downhill, is where things get somewhat fuzzy.

25 seconds for last 160 is 31 for last 200. I expected faster.

I did not think so

It's so sad we do this every year. but when I look at it deeply through

The 2 mile was actually 2.1 miles

Where are you getting 3 mile splits?

So, if I go run the course that will make it the correct distance?

Do you have an aerial photo of the starting line, or one shot from the side as the runners were waiting to start behind the starting line?

What are you looking for? It is a starting line.
