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.... :-)

To expand a bit on this thought: I love 50m. sprints. I guess I have a thing for quikies without long term commitments :groovy:
So..why are there so many open water long distance swims and so few sprint competitions. BTW, same in running.
Me too!! :agree: Very few sprint competitions. I'm still waiting for a local pentathlon ... like the one the GA folks are attending. Very few meets in general. During the summer, tons of OW swims. During the winter, everyone is going postal.
There is a world championship for aquathlons though.
