Dennis Baker: A Day in the Life

I'm sure some of you have been reading Dennis Baker's "A Day in the Life" series. For those who haven't, it's a chance to see what this guy goes through. I've never met Dennis, but I have heard stories. To read that he does sets of 300s fly is astounding. I know he's been doing that all his life, but to have the drive to do it alone is great. I must say, though, that his entries almost sound a little like bragging. That said, to go 8x100 SCM free on 1:10 and call it recovery is remarkable for anyone, much less a 45-year-old man. Any other thoughts?

    To put this in perspective, in the year 2046 will there be a masters swimmer to equal or better a time by an Olympian today? I don't know for sure, but I suspect if you asked the same question 30 years ago people would have said no. BTW, are you a swimming historian by profession or a google master?
