If you have a free moment, please check out an article/proposal of sorts that I wrote for the USMS website. You can find it here: www.usms.org/.../articledisplay.php
I realize it's a bit lengthy, but I think it's an idea that could really help motivate swimmers to keep at it over the lifespan.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
For fun this year, I played around with the age-grading factors from this article: www.usms.org/.../articledisplay.php for my Postal Swimtathlon League.
Our quarterly RESULTS show:
1. Overall Results
2. Results by Gender
3. Results by Gender and Age Group
4. "Age Graded" results
It's been interesting, and I've gotten good feedback from the participants.
