I ran across the 2005-2008 Motivational Times on the USA Swimming web site:
Top 16 based times
Percentile based times
Has there ever been an effort to produce some sort of motivational time standards for masters swimmers?

Well, there was a time when I actually had to compare myself to 6-year-olds! When I realize that I can now compare myself to 10-year-olds, that's pretty motivating (for me, anyway)!
