Just curious how many have started swimming over the age 40 and been able to get under 60 sec in the 100. If so, just how fast and after how many years training?
How about the 200 yd?
Looking to see what can be done for inspiration!!
Poolrat,
That is truly impressive and it shows a tremendous untapped potential since you are new to swimming.
Has your focus changed to other strokes and distances? I'm sure you could get back under 60 with the right training.
Breakthroughs are subtle. You think you are not getting anywhere and then they happen.
We are both "new" to this. We still have engines to build and efficiency to find. I am guessing that it takes 6-8 years of dedicated training to level off. That gives us quite a bit more time to get to where we want to be.
