just as a by-the-by: a mile is 8 furlongs and a furlong is 660 feet...so a mile is 5280 feet. A yard is 3 feet so there's 1760 yards in a mile.
There are 1.0936 yards to a metre so there's 1609.36 metres in a mile...or 1.60936 kilometres. So that's 4 circuits of 400m (Olympic) track, plus 9.36 metres.
