Heres the scoop. I've been swimming for about 3 years now. My best times (scy) are as follows:
500 free 5:13.something
200 free 157.something else
100 free 52.8
50 free 24.38
100 fly 59.7
I swim between 20,000 and 30,000 yards/week now. I'm 20 years old, (male). My question is, do you think that with the right training and work ethic I could make a cut for the Olympic Trials in 2012? I would expect to train between 2 and 3 hours/day. I know it may sound a little crazy given my times now but I believe that with 6 years to do it, I can. My goal would be to qualify for the 100,200, or 500 free.

A lot of good advice in here.......I think Beth hit one of the most important points.....Find a "GOOD" Coach!!! This can make a huge difference. Always pay attention to the road you just left behind, it directly influences the road you take ahead. It's all about the Journey!!!!!!
Good Luck!!!!!
