How bad a swimmer you are?

I feel a little like our old friend Ion Beza. He always complains about the age groups that he swam in and how unfair it is. Anyway, I saw the NT's for my age group and in the 100's there were 2 second drops from last year and in the 200's 4 seconds drop. Anyway, it drives home on how medicroe I am and worst in my middle age than my youth. Granted, I can swim butterfly better than last year but the best stroke breaststroke hasn't improved since last summer. Anyone else feel the same way. I know that in your middle years swimming should be more of an exercise and I don't want the shoulder operations or knee prpblems that some master swimmers had.

    I am a masters swimmer. But I swim 85% for excerise. I also swim 15% competion. But I do not qualify for any of the N Q T , S. But you know what , It does not stop me from competeing. I look at it this way . We all cannot be world champs. Some will go faster and some will go slower. But when you have heart and desire , and no matter how you swim . Then you are a CHAMP. Happy NEW YEAR to All. DOM. A
