At the risk of sounding like a shameless self-promoter, which I suppose I am, there is an article in the Winter 2004 edition of Men's Health--Best Life magazine (the guy from CSI is on the cover) that I wrote about masters swimming. It's set at the Rutgers meet last summer and profiles a couple guys in my age group along with Bill Volckening, the editor of Swim and a super nice guy.
If you have any friends who are sitting on the fence about possibly returning to the water, the people I profiled might help inspire them to check out our sport's considerable benefits.
Best Life is a trial magazine of sorts that Rodale (publisher of Men's Health, Runners World, etc.) is currently selling only on the newsstand, four times a year, but is considering "launching" as a monthly. It goes against the current grain of men's magazines a la Maxim and its ilk, concentrating less on babes and beer than thoughtful analysis of subjects of interest to a somewhat older more reflective audience (40ish+) as opposed to youth oriented (18-34) demographics. I would sincerely appreciate anyone who has a bit of spare change grabbing a copy on the newstand near you!
For what it's worth, I do think you might enjoy my article--and lots of the other pieces in this issue. Thanks.

That's good that you got to know and see your daughter and she is a fine young lady.
