Hills of Death (HOD) Apr 2016 1:58pm, 21 Apr 2016 32,151 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) To be fair Austria Ironman the other year did a 24 mile 'marathon' at the end I believe it happens in Tris My one was debatable but I didn't measure it properly as I had watch problems as I was f&*(ed coming off the bike.
Windsor Wool Apr 2016 1:58pm, 21 Apr 2016 2,537 posts	0 Windsor Wool It's still there Lark, I guess you can't look it up as a marathon anymore though!! Perhaps easiest way is to look for someone you know ran it, say a Wool who ran it as Datchet in 2013.
Ultracat Apr 2016 2:01pm, 21 Apr 2016 11,406 posts	0 Ultracat I thought you are "allowed" a certain percentage over or under when measuring race courses? Probably wrong but I did hear it somewhere in the distance past.
larkim Apr 2016 2:08pm, 21 Apr 2016 665 posts	0 larkim Cheers, yes - I was searching for "marathon" with "manchester" in the title. Switch "marathon" for "any" and it appears. They've obviously added it to a category of "not a marathon"!
larkim Apr 2016 2:09pm, 21 Apr 2016 666 posts	0 larkim Ultracat - the official way to measure adds 0.1% to any race distance so that if they are 0.1% wrong it is still at least long enough. So thats 1m for every 1000m, or 42m in the case of a marathon. But that is always "over", never "under".
Ultracat Apr 2016 2:15pm, 21 Apr 2016 11,407 posts	0 Ultracat According to my training log entry for Manchester 2015 I ran 26.25 miles, so I will count it towards my marathon total

Hills of Death (HOD) Apr 2016 2:26pm, 21 Apr 2016 32,154 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) I guess if I every get there my spurious Austrian one will still count ;-). #only73togo
