Out there running since dinosaurs roamed the earth
Are we there, yet?
2:59:50 before chip timing existed, estimated I lost a minute at the start
2:54:56 lost less than 10 seconds at that one
2024 Races:
03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles
05/11 - D3 50K 05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour
06/17 - 6 Days in the Dome 12-Hour.
In my book 3:59:55 rounds to 3:60 . I can see why you want to keep the 'seconds'!!
This is why I truncated my times. I wanted to keep my PR 2:59:52 below three hours.

Have only run 3 and they were all with in the last 16 months.
I'm pretty sure that I can improve a bit.

Trivia question: The 3:11:00 was in 1994, and I was a 29-yr-old male. Did I miss qualifying for Boston by 1 minute, or by 1 second? (I hear there may have been a 59-second "grace period" or some such ...)
