Hi all, I have just started swimming. I am 25. I am in very good shape but I need something more. I am finding my swimming lessons at the YMCA boring. I want to compete or find a club to train with. I am, by no means, a good swimmer. I am still figuring it all out. Does anyone have any advice? I don't think I am ready for Masters swimming but I want something more, something to really push me. Lastly, how do you know when you are ready for Masters swimming? What skills must you have? What is Masters swimming all about? Are there any good resources to contact groups to train with? Thanks, Kate:confused:

    ...be very afraid. "3500" is a little daunting right now, but I want to get up to speed fast. Pardon the pun but I would rather be the little fish in the big pond than the big fish in the little pond. Hopefully Masters swimming would do that for me. I think my pride won't let me relax until I am on par with the others. Thanks for all your advice!
