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.... :-)

I'm enjoying the tri bash we have going here.
Can anyone explain to me why swimming a 2000 with a pull buoy and paddles is proper training for a triathlon swim event? Can you wear a pull buoy and paddles in a triathlon?
And, why if you are a triathlete and doing your swim day, do you have to wear the ridiculous two piece man bikini? What is that bra top doing for you in the pool that it is required to wear it?
Further, if you aren't jumping out of the pool and onto your bike, the padded bike shorts ARE NOT SWIM SUITS.
Lastly, it is not necessary to wear a heart rate monitor at all times during the day.
