b. Triangle Speed Course as in 3.1.5g with distances of 100, 300, 500, 750, 1250 km, or greater multiples of 500 km. A record may be claimed for the declared course and any shorter triangle in compliance with the applicable triangle geometry requirements in 3.1.8.
They skip 1000, 1500, 2000, etc...


As written that excludes 1000km (which seems odd), but allows 1500, 2000, 2500, etc..
Perhaps it was a slip when they added 1250km?

My thoughts exactly.
It also seems odd to have different distances for O&R and Triangles.
