Are Triathletes worth the dues they pay toward Masters Swimming?
I say we force all Triathletes to spend one day a week in the sprint lane, one day a week doing stroke (i.e. IM) work, and then make them focus on their starts and turns.
This invasion needs to be controlled.... :-)

My team has some workouts specifically for triathletes I think 4x a week. Of course we do have a few who sneak into our regular workouts (as I'm sure a few of us sneak into theirs). I really don't understand the fuss....we have 8 lanes. If they want to do free, chances are there's a lane for them out of the 8 where they'd fit in with whatever that lane is doing. The coach is usually pretty good about moving people around if he sees someone out of where they should be.
