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 find this topic rather amusing!! Im a full-time athlete, at the age of 17 Im currently swimming 4.17 for 400m free, run 5km in 15.15 and cycle 10miles in 21.30. I really think you have no idea as to how tough a triathlon actually is or actually how good athletes are in all three disciplines. If all this is "tri-ing" to be an athlete I really would like to know what an athlete actually consists of???
