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.
when I read extreme characterizations like "crime," "immoral," "egocentric," "misrepresentation" or "unethical,"
Sandbagging seems unquestionably to be a mis-representation, which is why I compared it to others examples that most would not consider offensive, like dyeing your hair. One enters a time that one fully expects is incorrect. How is that extreme? What would you call it? ("Mis-representation" certainly sounds less offensive than "sandbagging" to my ears, but maybe that's just me.)
I imagine the moralizing wears thin. Owners of Hummers perhaps feel the same way about Prius owners.
