The latest threads clearly reveal that the vast majority of masters swimmers wish breaststroke did not exist (except Peter, Allen, Aquafeisty, and a possiblely experimenting SCY freestyler). So why does everyone hate breaststroke? :mad:

I feel so bad for her. I'm actually hiding the fact that I swam a :27 50 *** at my meet yesterday, I just don't want anyone to feel bad ...
