It makes sense, in that there's no other information to use, but it's not something that any other Marathon is going to accept for qualification I suspect.
Essentially they're suggesting using your pace over the last 2.2km as a basis for estimating your speed over the last 568km. While some...
Having done it before, I don't think the extra bit was uphill. The previous course already had the uphill bit going East from the St Dunstan's roundabout towards Rottingdean. The difference this year was that rather than turning at the top of the hill as previously, someone had mistakenly placed...
