ALL hand times get adjusted for record purposes, Sadie broke it fairplay, it doesn't detract from Mary's legacy (compromised as it may have been in later years).
Right, so you know they both ran 4:40.1
Sadie did not break the record. How is that not clear?
"NFHS Conversion: The National Federation of High Schools has a similar conversion to the one above. To apply this conversion factor, a hand time is rounded up to the nearest tenth (e.g., 10.83 seconds becomes 10.9 seconds, and 11.77 seconds becomes 11.8 seconds). After the time is rounded up, the conversion factor is added. For NFHS, all races, regardless of length, have a conversion factor of 0.24 of a second added to the rounded hand time."
