Frequently Asked Questions

What's Pi Day?

Pi Day is a holiday held to celebrate the mathematical constant π, 3.1415... It is held on March 14th (3/14). Get it? π (sometimes written pi) is a mathematical constant whose value is the ratio of any circle's circumference to its diameter in Euclidean space. source

Why is the name of your race so long??

For enhancing the nerdiness of the race. The abbreviation of the title is πR², the area of a circle. Alliteration is fun. River Rotation.

Why isn't the race 3.1415... miles?

Because I wanted it to be longer darnit! More fun. :)
