Read this feature on Rec Swimmers from Mel Stewart. Then check out The Screaming Viking's reply on page 2. It's hilarious. www.alpha.swimnetwork.com/.../rec_swimmers__love__em_or_hate__em_-8803.html --

  • Thanks for posting that link, some crazy stuff over there. I happened to see this quote in someone's signature line: "Don't go telling me a 100 fly is too difficult...it can't be any where near as hard as running a marathon or competing in a triathlon. " I think this really speaks to the difference between the competative swimmer mentality and the tri/marathon mentality.Sure it's harder to finish a tri or a marathon and if your only goal is to finish then,sure do something "hard".My goal is to swim fast.Which is harder,finishing a tri or making USMS Top Ten.
