HANDICAPPING

OK...Here comes a thread for all of you wannabe odds-makers. Post your thoughts for establishing handicaps for personal challenge races. Here are a couple of mine: 1. Age credit: basic idea.....the older of the two gets a handicap. (as in chaos vs. muppet) the handicap goes to yours truly. 2. Wetsuit penalty: self explanatory....I heard 10% is a good rule of thumb for this one. 3. Personal bests (within 2 years).....swimmers are handicapped based on their best recent performances. (this could make geek vs. gull II a real nail-biter)
