  • I didn't find it informative either. Just a PR vehicle. And I have to agree with Goodsmith about the flexibility comment. She is flexible because she has two daily stretchers, not from childbirth. Wonderful though they are, childbirth and children are a hindrance to swimming faster, not conducive to it. Sorry, its true. Many of the most elite women masters swimmers don't have kids. Besides, I have three kids and, while quite flexible, I am not as flexible as when young. I'm sure I could do more. I think I need to consult Geek and Paul on hocus pocus means of recovery! I do believe there were some very flexible looking splits busted out at a bar in Austin.
