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 respect Triathletes.I agree it is an interesting event and probably been good to swimming. The distances are arbitrary based on a ratio from pre-existing events and unfair to the swimmers. As for me,it's distance event am I'm not interested in doing it.I have to agree with Geek(how weird is that) on the popularity issue. I also think Swimming World is a pretty good magazine.(How old is Runner's World? Swimming World has been around since the early 60s and it's predecessor since the 50s.)
