The number of participants in many/most marathons would make this an economic and safety nightmare - better would be more checkpoints (perhaps every 1Km) with good video coverage of the runners passing them.
- nsteel 5y agoDefinitely. I can imagine the sky above a major race almost turning dark as 40,000 drones hover overhead. Sounds very unrealistic (and horrible). More static cameras would suffice. And GPS watch data where available.

- jessaustin 5y agoThis could make marathons entertaining for a change?
