Did anyone see the new Gary Hall, Jr Barbarsol commerical. It is about time swimmers get some good endorsements besides Speedo and the other swimming apparel companies. Madison Ave has really come a long way in the last few years. You would never see a swimmer in a commerical a year after the Olympics before. It is nice to know that all the endorsements aren't going to Phelps even though the boy more than deserves whatever endorsements he get. I mean Phelps is out of this world.

Don't get the hair on your back ruffled.
Hey, I love the 50 free. I swim it occasionally myself even as an old man...... But the truth is ..... the 50 free is best be described as.... "controlled bizerk". It's raw speed and panic all balled up in ego with a touch of self control. The guy who flinches at any point in the races loses.
The 50 free is more a function of attitude than other events which rely on a significantly more amount of pool time training.
I guess it comes down to your definition of training and being in shape...... is it aerobic or anaerobic.
