You know, I've heard a few people say, "this is only masters, it's no big deal."
Yet, as I meet more people I learn about stories of people enjoying the sport, and the years of dedication they've given to swimming. 60+ years old, still healthy, still strong, going 32 for 50 fly... ???!!
Being fast at 20, great, way to go.... Try a lifetime of dedication, that's even greater.
For me, having already gone through a period where swimming=my life (in h.s. and college), I see master's swimming as a chance to relax and enjoy myself. So, there are some of us out here for whom the comment "it's only masters" isn't meant to be derogatory. Just to signify that swimming doesn't dominate our lives right now.
