Typi...Runcolo, Yes, I've never run a 3.1 5K course. Typically, 3.14 or 3.15 is what it comes out to be. I figure that's any of my weaving and not taking tangents like a piece of string. Plus, I've heard that all certified courses are deliberately a smidgen long, so as not to be challenged if there is a record. <br /><br />Right now I'm sitting around hoping I have another good 5K or two left in me before the season draws to a close. I hope I haven't peaked already. <br /><br />Thanks for the visit! --Alexrunner-grrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07725123764353127568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8374097373645886402.post-64846113832216926972009-04-20T15:48:00.000-05:002009-04-20T15:48:00.000-05:00Are most of these courses accurate according to yo...Are most of these courses accurate according to your Garmin? Generally speaking, my Garmin has all certified courses long, thus most 5k's show up around 3.15 or so, which makes sense being that it's hard to run all of the tangents and the Garmin is not 100%accurate.<br /><br />Growing up in Iowa, I am all to familiar with the small town 5k that was measured with the Race Directors Chevy Citation, thus curious. Because if a course is even off .005 that can be ~20 seconds right there.<br /><br />Well done though!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8374097373645886402.post-50092331067790623882009-04-20T14:41:00.000-05:002009-04-20T14:41:00.000-05:00Boston marathon 2009-Bad results...
