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.... :-)

Aqua,
A little warning next time, please. I spit half a can of Coke onto my laptop.
chris ny,
I don't know of a single morbidly obese person that could come close to completing a serious swim team workout. Then again, since you need a floating device to help you swim, your idea of excelling at swimming probably differs significantly from mine.
Also, I know of plenty of fast swimmers with similar body fat percentages that do not need a wet suit to float them. However, if you need help floating I would suggest the purchase of some water wings. They have really worked well for my 16 month old daughter.
