having just recently competed in the 2nd annual lake quassapaug open water festival, i can honestly say that stage racing has become my favorite way to kill a day (or a week).
i will be heading out to austin in october to participate in the highland lakes monster challenge....5 lakes in 5 days.
not to limit the pleasure of such a format to open water, i think there are tremendous possibilities for adding such challenges to the standard pool racing format.
here are a few suggestions:
50 of each stroke and the 100 im
100 of each stroke and the 200 im
200 of each stroke and the 400 im
1000, 1650 and 400 im
etc.
to clarify, each participant would be scored by their combined time.
