With the advent of Libby Lenton's 51.91 WR in the 100m free. I propose a swim off and battle of the sexes. Paul "the evil" Smith (45) representing Bobby Riggs vs. Libby Lenton (20) as Billie Jean King. My money rests on the female. John Smith

I just looked at the results for some of the famous ultramarathons (Hardrock, Western States, Wasatch) and the fastest man was always faster than the fastest woman--usually by a couple hours.
