Thanks stupid people and lawyers...

It appears Las Vegas 10K registration delayed because new policies and $1000-1800 dollar fees to cover insurance...look for open water events to disappear. usopenwaterswimming.org/SanctionChanges.htm http://www.lv10k.com/

  • I look at USAT and -- at the risk of being insensitive -- they have people dying all the time in their events, often in the swim portion. Granted that dying of a heart attack or what have you is different then what happened in Maui, I have to wonder: what kind of coverage do THEY have? Cost to sanction a triathlon with USAT, assuming you file on time is $200. So that could be an ironman with 2.4 mile swim, 112 miles of roads and cyclists and 26 miles of run course, all for $200.
