Vineyard Haven too.

I wonder how the eclipse voters see the distance of one mile? Is there any strict rule/guideline governing what a sprint is in the eyes of the voters?
A mile isnt a sprint. There are no rules or guidelines for the voting.

Let me put it this way, the difference between 6 furlongs and a mile is the same as the difference between a mile and 1 1/4. A mile simply isnt a sprint regardless of one turn or no turns.
