==Running the tangents==
[[File:WC24 Course Map.jpg|right|thumb|200px|The course layout.]]As you can see from the map on the rightbelow, the course is essentially a rectangle, with four left turns and four straights. However, those straights are not actually straight, but slight curves. I was surprised how many runners stayed to the left of the path, even though the tangent for two sides was on the right. Though the difference between the tangent and the left is slight, over the course of 24 hours the difference becomes significant. The gap between the team gold medal and the bronze team medal was less than 1%. Over time, runners became aware of the tangent, which actually had some orange marks on the ground from the course certification, but it took longer than expected.[[File:WC24 Course Map.jpg|none|thumb|200px|The course layout.]]
