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.... :-)

Apparantly some can not take a little joke, all in fun.
Our small master's team has limited room, so flip turns and passing our important. We have passed on information on passing.
As for having a coach make sure people swim with like abilities, kidn of tough with limited space and even when faster swimmers are together, a good amount of passing still exisits. I would love to be able to have an 8 lane long course pool, but that is never going to happen, we are lucky to get two lanes long course.
Oh yeah... Why do tri's complain when a work out is not all freestyle? Doing all four strokes will not only work more muscles, but will also get you in swimming shape faster.
As for adults not knowing how to spell, that is why Microsoft invented spell checker (F7)
