The second started swimming competitively at age 45, and since that time has had the same amount of training per year and the same quality of coaching that a typical high school swimmer would have. Is the second person at a disadvantage compared with the first? Bob, that is a great question! Unfortunately, it is not the question being asked by Ion and Lefty.
