There was an article in the Oregonian newspaper today about the track at Willamette 
University in Salem. During some recent work to the track they discovered that each 
lap was actually 406m.  The steeplechase was the only event that was accurately 
measured.  No one is sure when the mistake was made, but it has probably been like 
that for some time.  Just made me wonder how many other tracks like that are around.
