New Race: Multi-Man + Last night's masters
http://www.multisportcanada.com/ms/events/calabogie/description_multiman.cfm
This one looks pretty neat: 4500m swim, 120k bike, 30k run (3 x Olympic distance).
You can do it solo- or you can do it as a team. And, unlike other relays, you can split up the swim, bike and run.
The course is 6 x 750 m swim loops, 6 x 20K bike loops and 6 x 5K bike loops.
What is so special about this type of event?This will create an event is extremely spectator friendly. Not just for those watching the event, but for those that are participating. In most races you might get a chance to pass a friend in the registration line and, hopefully, at least once on the race course and perhaps see them again after the race.
With MultiMan there is time between loops to chat with your fellow racers who are also between loops as well as your friends/family that have come to watch. There will be plenty to do between loops as there will be sponsor demos, food throughout the day and other entertainment as well.
