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.

    All you have to do is drop your hang ups. I will tellyou somthing about my self. Maybe that will help. I was at the last national at A.S.U. in az. I did three swims 1650-500 200 Free. I was in the 65-69 Age. But I am A left leg amputee above the knee. I went out on my crutches. and finished all my events. But what i liked about the nationals, is that no body treat me any different thanany one else. I was just one of the boys or men. I felt great about that . So go out and swim any meet you like , because all masters are gtreat people. Have happy new year and compete. DOM. A
