This is something I have been wondering about for a while. To the swimmers that are REALLY Fast, like top 10 national times...were you always fast or did it come later in life? If it came later, how did you get so fast, was it great coaching or just working hard on your own. I was thinking about this because many people are born fast runners ( I am not one of them )I was wondering if swimming is sort of the same. Thanks

Thanks for the replies. Since I don't have a coach and I swim alone and actually enjoy it, I am pretty self motivated swimming 5-6x a week 3-3500 yds. at a time usually long ( 500 yds.) intervals, what are some good videos or other methods of getting better. I am not really slow but nowhere near as fast as I would like. Thanks again, Paul
