Hoping you guys can explain to me a question on the speed markers i don't understand. I searched to no avail on the answer. As I have seen many time slips posted on Instagram, id really like to know.
As I understand it right, on a 5 mile course, the first two miles are for getting up to speed, and the last three are for the run? So after the first two miles starting, then we see marker mile 3 speed, mile 4 speed....but what is the "Exit" speed? and then we have the mile 5 speed.
And in the case of Poteets slip I saw, if the exit speed is before the 5 mile Mark, why isn't the 481 MPH counted?
And you guys were 100% right when I asked questions about going for the first time two years ago, it is addicting! I thought it would be a once in a lifetime trip, and it was, but I NEED to find a way to get back there again---and drink plenty of water this time so I don't cut it short from heat stroke---to much walking in the pits. Maybe next year.....
