Ahhh, but I was calcuating the minimum running distances. This would also assume that BR ran the entire distance precisely on the foul line. Farther up or back in the box will increase the distance as you indicate. Plus my calculations are based on 2nd grade arithmetic (2 digit addition and subtraction), so if you remember how to use your slide-ruler you might be able to increase the precision, professor.
