Are we sure that everybody's Garmin wasn't just inaccurate? Because I think that's the cause of races seeming long. Either that or failing to run the shortest tangents.

Stuff happens. Like the apology. Perhaps they should have been charged marathon prices for the extra distance.
This is one for the Garminazi.
