If you ask for meta data on a runner in the new API-NG you get a runnerID field which contains an integer. This number is different from the selection ID.
What is it for? My guess is that it is unique to that runner between events - although many selection IDs are reused in that way as well.
Is it a foreign key for form data etc that the website now shows for many sports? And if so, is there an API to use that id?
