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.
Nice point! Just because someone is 40+ doesn't mean their life has to be all drudgery and sacrifice. Most moms I know seems to obsess about their kids 24/7 and do virtually nothing for themselves, contrary to what Elise has observed. Doesn't seem particularly ideal for them or the kid, to me.
Why would someone have judged Dara harshly for not trying out for the Olympic team? I don't get this point ... And it seems to contradict your prior point about Dara being criticized because she doesn't fit "society's" notion of proper behavior for 40 somethings ...
Really just trying to get people to think and arguing both sides. Maybe Dara is doing this because she does feel like she has something to prove.
