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?
With all you people doing the sprints and shorter distances, I am definitely going to be sure to do distance - there's not many people out there left doing those events! :rofl:
Shhh! Don't tell everyone!
Other than the 200 free, the events I swam at Nationals were all pretty easy to place top ten in--at least compared to the shorter events.
