Unfortunately they exist, apparently. A quick web search reveals: ********************************* http://london-marathon.co.uk/iframes/runnersinfo/milemarkers.htm "Every mile is marked by a huge arch across the road. You will definitely not be able to miss them. At each mile marker there will be a clock giving the time elapsed since the start. Kilometres are marked at 5km intervals." ********************************* http://www.travel-library.com/europe/france/fr_20050511105200.html The Paris Marathon 2005 - Travelogue "They had mile markers but most things were in KM" ********************************* __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
