What would the time standards establish? Or why is that necessary?
Cat system isn't dependent on the race distance, we've already got a system that can "quantify" every race result in the country- usat's power score.
eta: what i'm trying to get at is that i dont really think sport is lacking because of this issue. So it's like that seems like a cool idea on paper, but this isnt bike racing or run racing. This is a sport where you as a RD has to put 3 courses together. So I'm not really all that much for making it where instead of a intersection turn around, the course has a u-turn in the middle of a road because well it has to be that exact distance.
Like I said, the olympic triathlon in 2012 wasn't even 40k. I didn't really hear much of a peep from people complaining.
