Subject: Maps for Metroplex sprint

For those of us who have not done the Metro Plex sprint or have no idea about the area I mapped the routes with elevations (I know BT has a similar funciton but I can never get the elevation to work) for our review.  For some reason the bike course is 4K short but from what I can tell I have the right route.  Hope this helps us all out.

I think you read the wrong number.

The distance on the link you posted says the map is only .72K short.

I actually printed a map from the Ironhead site that says 30K (18.6miles) but I remember seeing something else that said 27K.  27K is the right distance correct?

Yup.  It's only ~16.7miles.

Thanks.  Actually I was looking at the run map from the website and that is where I saw 30K.  Not sure why it is like this but oh well, it is only 2 miles different.
