I agree with the change. I just do not understand how they cannot lose 4 miles somewhere. It should be 112 case closed and the 12-15 minutes would be for the FOP-MOP. The BOP are getting screwed.
I am sure there are many variables that we do not know…or care to know….but I agree, the BOP is getting screwed and personally feel 4 miles is quite a bit of mileage to "get close" to 112. It's beyond give or take a little. Sort feels like a 27 mile marathon. I wonder if they are just screwing with everyone. It seems like an official statement would be given, rather than one off emails to people asking, or posts on Facebook. If you were not on social media and knew in advance, it would be pretty shitty to show up at the expo and find out….or worse yet…find out when your garmin starts clicking off 113, 114, 115…. I would be pissed. I'm not thrilled with the race not being 140.6…I want to PR, and was hoping to PR by a bunch….but 4 miles is quite a bit of added mileage.
