I'm a male, 36. How well does a 1:20 in the 100 freestyle compare to others in the same age group? I'd like to know how far off I am from being able to hang in a masters meet. Never swam in school or had coaching, took up swimming as a religion in October.

I have been swimming regularly for a little over a year now. I am down to a 1:18 for 100 with an in-pool start. I am guessing that if I learned to do a block start maybe I could knock off a couple of seconds. But I am with you - 54 seconds seems like a world away. Oh well, I keep telling myslef that the health benefits are the real reason for swimming.
