    The only people getting faster are those that did not exploit their talent when they were younger. I'm hoping I only partially exploited my talent when younger. In my case I swam but didn't run or lift in my teens, ran and did lots of push-ups from age 18-21 (but no swimming), then squandered the next 15 years chained to a desk with no real exercise program to speak of. I'm trying to locate some of my old times to get a better comparison, although I'll never know that I could have done during my non-swimming years.
