I was just curious. I noticed that quite a few posts are from people in the UK, Canada (which is outside the US, technically ;) ), or high school swimmers.
Are people posting here because discussion boards are not available elsewhere? (I haven't looked.) Or is the information quality higher here?

Yes, I too waited before joining and now I kick myself for it. A friend told me about Masters because I was complaining about the Gym. The last swim meet I had been in was 18 years ago so I was worried, like you Cherie, that I wasn't prepared. When I finally did join all of the worry disappeared after one practice. Now, two years later I can't get enough. I was recently elected to our team's board and I encourage anyone thinking of joining to do so and not worry about their swimming "level." Join the Fun!
