course just published: https://www.racepoint.ca/maps/orw.html?mapid=6

It is really different from previous years, where it would venture into Gatineau (Qc). I heard an interview where an organizer mentioned it was a source of pride: it was the only Canadian marathon to cross provincial borders.

Now it stays in Ottawa and there are 2 180° turns. I'm not sure I like it. Could be resistance to change, I had already started visualizing the old course...

Yeah no, I don't like 180° turns.

@fo That's weird - what you are seeing looks different from what I see, at the same URL. https://www.racepoint.ca/maps/orw.html?mapid=6

@WTL how is it different? The thumbnail from your link looks a lot like what I see... 🤨

@fo @WTL I bet the thumbnail is from last year or something

@stephanie @WTL haha thank you for the screenshot! It is not what I'm seeing at all, I see what @WTL sees... yep, as the website was just updated, could very well be a cache issue...

@fo @stephanie Maybe it was a proposed map and it leaked? Route doesn’t look too bad. 🤔

@WTL @stephanie from the screenshot, the route at the top looks like last year's route. That's why I'm thinking caching issue. But could be proposed route?

@fo @stephanie I’ll check the link again tomorrow and see if the map changes. Weird, though.

@WTL just got to my post in my timeline (yes I'm way behind) and I just noticed that indeed, the thumbnail of my link is wrong, even for me, but if I click, the map is correct... weird...

@WTL@mastodon.social avatar

@fo So you're seeing the map that stays in Ottawa?

@fo@thecanadian.social avatar

@WTL when I click on the link, yes, and it was the version I intended to share as well. The outlier is the thumbnail where it goes into Gatineau.

@fo Okay, cool. Still strange through. 🤷🏻
