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.

  • I noted above that Wally had qualified for Trials in 2000. He did sometimes work out twice a day. But he wasn't setting ARs. And he didn't have her 3 workout routine. I hate to say it, but I don't think there's necessarily a "presumption of innocence" in professional sports anymore as a non-legal matter. And discussion forums are not courts of law. Condemnation is a little excessive, but skepticism is perfectly reasonable. We're just chatting about what's possible. As a mother, I would also say she should lose the "it's for my kid" crap. It's for her. Sounds nice for PR, but it really turned me off.
