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.... :-)

Geek: Maybe a bad point in time in Dixie region (I just checked again using the USMS link), I find 3 events for the remainder of the year! There are more running events than that this weekend in my little town outside Atlanta. Maybe I'm not using the right search engine. I've been checking the paper (AJC). I would love to be wrong. Point me in the right direction. :help: I'd love to one day be able to race (and get killed by you guys), the pools (4) I go to don't even have blocks!:shakeshead:
There are many more masters runners than masters swimmers. Anyone can run. As a technique sport, swimming is much harder to master, especially if you lack an age group background.
