I have an idea for a chess variant. chess/running

you play chess otb like normal with the exception that you place the clock away from the board. let's say 25 meters (1000 inch).

you play a 25 minutes games. each time you have made your move you have to run to the clock and press the clock. the faster you run the more time you have.

I think it would be kind of funny to try once.

Tweak the distance/time to move ratio, and I'll start to edge out some grandmasters

I think most gm are in perfect shape as we found out in another thread .

So I don't think you can outrun most GM.

I think even the NM here on site excercise much before a big game.
