OK,
Here is my swimming career in a nutshell. I have started to level off, so I think getting under a minute is going to be hard.

Going under a minute for a 100 SCY free has eluded me for over 10 years of masters swimming. After several years of little to no progress, I put doing meets on hold, and focused on other aspects, such as losing weight/body fat, building up my core, and building up my overall fitness endurance. Now that I've accomplished most of that, I have begun to once again tackle the sub-minute 100 SCY free. I'm testing my workout pace about every 2 weeks, going out of my way to ask my coaches for feedback, and plan to enter a SCY meet next year. Unfortunately, here in AZ our SCY season is over for the year. I may do a LCM meet this year just for kicks, if it doesn't disrupt my schedule too much.
