Hi All,
I did some analysis of the Ironman Arizona swim, the 2011 1-Hour Postal Swim results, and the 1-Hour Postal Swim world records.
This link includes a chart comparing performance between men and women in those events. www.watergirl.co/.../how-big-gender-gap-swimming.
I'd be interested to hear what you guys have to say on the subject.
Not sure Title IX has much to do with women over 50, atleast not currently.
Yeah, well it did when those over 50s were in their teens, and that's the part that is germane to this discussion.
What we're talking about here is how Title IX and other factors increased the opportunities for women in sports in the '60s and '70s. How can you say college programs weren't affected by Title IX until 1994? Before Title IX there was no requirement for colleges that fielded men's teams to also field women's teams.
