The obvious answer is a stopwatch and a photo finish, but after watching officials at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium measure the wind for an hour with a machine that looked like it belonged in a science lab, I know it’s about ruling out every possible advantage. They check the equipment, the track, even the shoes, leaving nothing to *shrama* but the athlete’s own sweat. It makes me smile, thinking how I measure my own small wins—like finally getting my Appa’s prescription refilled before the pharmacy closed—with the same fierce attention to detail, just to make sure a good day counts.
