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.

It's isn't easy. I started swimming as a 48 year old in 2000, and had no prior competitive swimming experience. It took 6 years but I did it once. Getting there again has been my struggle. I've been so close but seems like I blow a turn or don't go out fast enough.
Here's a summary of my best 50 and 100 times for each year since my first swim meet in December 2001.
--------50y--100y
2001 - :30.35 1:11.01
2002 - :28.29 1:06.80
2003 - :27.93 1:02.58
2004 - :28.56 1:02.40
2005 - :26.81 :59.23
2006 - :27.08 1:00.93
2007 - :26.60 1:00.40
I'm hoping to bust a 59 again in Austin. If I do, it will be :bouncing::banana::groovy:
and of course lots of :drink:.
