- - I believe it isn't important whether any one person's times in the rankings are legitimate or not.
- I believe it is important that people have reasonable confidence in the rankings.
- Therefore it is important whether or not a substantial number of people cheat or not.
- I believe this applies to all people on the rankings, not just to the elites.
What I plan to do:
- - After the March Madness but before the marathon challenge, I plan to attempt a new PB at the 2K.
- I plan to video tape my effort. Whatever the result, I will post the video online.
- The video will be one continuous take; the video will start and end with a closeup of the PM3, showing the starting setup and the final result.
- Obviously videos can be faked. Several dinosaur movies demonstrate that. This is an unavoidable, but I think unlikely, weakness in the plan.
- Over time, I will video PB attempts at other distances and post them as well. I may not always have video, but I will always be willing to video.
I encourage anyone who agrees to do the same.
