Seems inevitable, no? Even though my practice times seem to be pretty consistent with intervals I was able to hold 5 to 7 years ago (mid to early
30's), now that I am 40, my races just seem to get slower. Its an odd scenario to be in. As an age grouper and into college, the older you got, the more you trained, the faster you swam. Now, it seems, mother nature is kicking things in reverse. While I still love to train, I'm finding less incentive to compete.
Anyone else come to this conclusion?
June also said to keep swimming new events, and you have a whole new set of best times.
that is a good idea, but for me, it means distance freestyle, 200 fly and the 400 IM ... the 4-IM I can deal with ... the others, I am not so sure.
