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.
From someone who is getting into competitive swimming at 33 I think this is absolutely awesome........... Fitness and nutrition are the real Fountain of Youth.
... and the desire to make it happen!

:applaud::woot: I was so happy for her. Did you see her break down into tears of joy? It almost made me cry too! What a great spokeswoman for us! I hope she mentions Masters Swimming in her interviews!
My wife, who has a life beyond swimming, took one look at Torres and exclaimed, "My God, what is wrong with that woman."
Interesting article:

Nice necro, Stud. lol And I see Geek just can't control himself.
Did Evil Smith ghost write that article? ("Nobody. Ever.")
She did have the best smile of the trials thus far. Looked genuinely happy. I don't get the constantly taking your kid up on the medal stand though.

I agree, that is truly dreadful. Maybe Phelps should take Bowman up there, maybe Beard should tote Heffner up there. The hype is making me keep an air-sickness bag close at hand.
I would like to point out to NBC that there are more than two swimmers in the US (that being Torres and Phelps).

You don't need to tell that to Scott Spann, nice interview after his upset in the 200 ***....not!
A friend who was sitting nearby said a few people in the stands were yelling at the interviewer talking with Hansen to go talk to the "winner".
After most of you bad mouthing Dara, me telling you all were wrong. Now some of you are praising her swims.
I can not believe some of you people are now saying anything positive about Dara. I have always been on her side.
Go Dara!!!
