Shortened Courses

Updated: 2023-03-22

Shortenings are used to let some competitors run a shorter course variant within a class. A common use is to let runners in a restart take a shorter course. Those running the shorter course will automatically be placed behind everyone taking the longer variant. MeOS automatically determine which course variant was run when reading out the punching card.

Using Shortened Courses

• Add the standard (long) course and the shortened variant as normal courses on the page Courses.
• Select the standard course and check With shortening.
• Select the Shortened course. If you have a course with loops, it is also possible to let MeOS automatically create shorter versions of the course by excluding loops.

It is possible to create several layers of shortened variants by defining a shortening to the already shortened course.
