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.... :-)

Most absurd thing I have ever heard of. I am not a tri athlete and I don't do flip turns all the time and I would not do push ups. You are just thinking of things to push all swimmers away from MASTER SWIM CLUBS not only triathletes. It is not the childrens do as I say club or recieve punishment..
