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?

Meldyk,
:bow: Thanks for taking me to the place where I could get to see how I'm comparing to the others in my age group.
I'm a hippo compared to those women completing at 28 seconds free 50 SC.
I'll need to shave 28 seconds to get there which I see is an impossible feat. :( But, I'll find the workouts to help me get there just like I did with Concept2 - row 2k at 2:10 or better from 2:30.
Thanks!
