There was a tri here in NC at one time that was a swim/bike/run/bike/swim but it was in a disgusting lake. I think that would be a good formula. They also have equalizer tris where each distance is theoretically similar in time. All that probably does is reduce the bike and run distances.
Whenever I do a pool tri, I always put a time that is way faster than what I can go because I know that at least half the people in front of me will screw up and put the wrong time and the other half are a lot slower than they think.
