Turned 50 yesterday, so I tried to swim a 50 sec 100 free. The best I could do was 52 with fins. Who has tried this without fins and been able to match their age? I think it's a good challenge. I suppose this feat could be done as early as mid 40's for some, or very few.
Jeff Farrell swam a 1:00.1 for the 100 LCM AT AGE 60 in 1998.
And you swam a :58.61 at the age of 60 followed by Jack Groselle swimming it at 57.79 this year. Isn't more impressive to swim below your age in the 100 in either LCM and SCY? After looking at these I think its easier as you get older to hit the LCM times then the SCY times. Somebody like Matt Biondi will have to wait until he is in his 50's to match the LCM 100 Free times.
