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.
At least it will divert us from arguing about Ande's blog.

Apparently not retiring yet...
And Torres? After proclaiming herself retired before leaving Beijing, she has found the strength, in the handshakes of everyone she meets, to keep swimming for another year — or four.

She reached her peak at 41.
I might say not yet. Given how she trains, and recovers, it's very likely she'll be swimming with the same speed in 3 years and 10 months.
The real question is whether or not US swimming produces a girl who can beat her at the next trials.
