Kilo - How?
How do they do the kilo on a 285 meter track like the one they are using
at World's, given that 1000/285 = 3.5087719 laps? Do they just do 3.5 laps (997.5 m) and project the time out to 1000 m? -CM Christopher Moyer |

I believe the track is exactly 3.5 laps to the kilo and not exactly
285m. On Thu, 31 Jul 2003 12:34:05 -0500, christopher a moyer wrote: How do they do the kilo on a 285 meter track like the one they are using at World's, given that 1000/285 = 3.5087719 laps? Do they just do 3.5 laps (997.5 m) and project the time out to 1000 m? -CM Christopher Moyer |

Do you measure from the centre, outside or inside of the track?

Do you measure from the centre, outside or inside of the track? On the black line. (Inside dia.) Mike |
