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 don't doubt that most people swim faster at meets than in practice. But what I am wondering is whether that's true for many new competitive swimmers.
If anyone else began racing when they were an adult, I'd be interested in hearing how they made out on this.
