I like the article in swim Magazine about Rita Egan and Sylvia powell. These women are not your typical slim young swimmers that are elite swimmers but like the rest of us ordinary. Actually, given my previous background in swimming I'm also won of these average jills. As a youth I swam the 100 meter *** at 1:30 and as a 46 at 1:43.31. So, many of us do it for enjoyment and some exercise knowing that we will never be at the top of the pack. I think we should have more of these stories?. And Ion believe me you are not that bad. You did a 2:31 200 meter freestyle. I recently swam a 3:15. So don't feel bad and their is alot more competition in the men than in the women in 45 to 49. Not saying that their are not good swimmers in the women.

Well, I have acess to other links thru the Arizona site. It has San Diego-Imperial Lsmc and Spma in LA/Orange,Utah,Colorado, Pacifc masters-Northern Cal. And I look up the results for curiously. As for not being married, there are those of us that neither married or had kids. We are still busy in a different ways Ion may work more hours at work than you. From what I heard he does a lot of overtime. Sometimes I feel that people that are married or divorce feel that those of us that are different do that have a lot of free time on our hands or don't have something too do. We are a minority in society and it doesn't mean we are less responsible. Look at the talk-shows and there are millions of people that have children that they are not responsible for, so those of us for different reasons that chose not to have them are more responsible adults. Not putting down parents but there is more to life than being married or having kids.
