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.

Here! Here! Cin!
But I think the point was that marriage, children, job, etc limit the time one can swim. Despite his limited time, C J is saying he is still better than Ion who has more time to practice. I think C J was also saying that Ion is so wrapped up in himself that he has lost perspective. He wasn't generalizing to all single folks.
