The Fastest Age

Ion - have you ever thought of politics, you are pretty good at avoiding the question, or better yet let me rephrase it If there is a swimmer out there who did not swim during those optimum growth years (13 to 19 yrs of age) yet can still be considered a successful Masters swimmer (posting a top ten USMS time) then your VO2 theory/excuse is bogus. If I can't find someone who falls into this criteria then your claim is credible. I'm not talking about Olympic champions or training theories or anything else - all I am asking for is a simple yes or no on a gentlemans (gentleperson to be p.c.) agreement, either write back and accept the challenge or duck it as usual, that is how the ball is in your court or am I to assume you have agreed (from the previous deleted thread on vo2 max, I was never able to read all the posts on the day it was deleted so I might have missed something - if so my apologies).
