No 94 m track for the London Olympics
12 July, 2012Do you remember the Australian mockumentary The Games that satirised the bureaucracy behind the Sydney Olympics? One episode revolved around the 100-metre athletics track, which it turned out was only 94 metres long. Even a decade later, the YouTube clip ‘The Games : The 100 Metres track’ is very funny. However, such things should not happen at the London Olympics as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is providing distance calibration.
