Dara just one the national title in the 100M Freestyle in 54.4 at the ripe old age of 40. Simply Incredible. :applaud: :woot: If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.

    Do you really think anyone swimming a fifty or one hundred race are going to check their heart rates. Would they say to themselves oh my heart rate is beating too fast? Next race I will swim slower so my heart does not beat that fast. Cardiac output is the product of heart rate and stroke volume. Your maximum heart rate declines with age, as does stroke volume, so your cardiac output declines as well.
