Looks like it is to gain 20 minutes of rest before doing the 400 IM.
What do you folks think? Fair play or not?
I say anyone attempting the 1650 and 400 IM back to back deserves some slack.

Yeah, but you're stuck with us. You wouldn't get any warm down between events without us, or be able to pat yourselves on the back for being so tough and pure.
However, the last couple sandbagging threads have been about those so-called pure distance swimmers (Kurt, Patrick, Erwin, etc). And distance swimmer sandbagging does way more damage to racing conditions and the timeline than do our measly split requests.
