It is, unfortunately, common for only mile markers to be posted on many
courses, but also many courses have no markers at all but only a map posted
at the start area.
I reported the distance of ONE KILOMETRE as: *the circular path made by
choosing the length of arcRadius =159.155m* at page 220 in my book: Towards
A Unified Technology (1982) while discussing the value for Pi=100000/31831,
also fixing radian to be the angle 57*17'44".88 (57*.2958).
Statement: "Choosing a linear distance of 159.155 Metre (New) to present the
radius of a circle, the circumference will be exactly ONE KILOMETRE (NEW)".

Subject: [USMA:36737] Marathon running!

I also have run marathons (22) and it is not true that one has to need to
know how long a mile is in order to arrange a suitable pace. There are
42.2 km in a marathon (42.195 to be picky) , rounded to 40 plus about
another ten minutes or so or running. All you need to know is what your
target "10 K" time is.
It is, unfortunately, common for only mile markers to be posted on many
courses, but also many courses have no markers at all but only a map posted
at the start area. Usually one can discern where the 10, 20, and 30 km
points are. Our running club here in Grass Valley, California, puts on a 10
km race each year where only km signs are visible, and there are 9 of them.
One can also use 3 miles as an approximate 5 km mark.
