:lmao: Look @ what Auburn gals are doing for a relevant comparison?
Paul, I think I see what you are saying. Is what you are saying - see how strong - and consequently fast- Auburn gals are? So true. However, comparing myself to U of A or Auburn gals or gals who final at Trials seems completely irrelevant. I will never be there. It's also a heck of a stretch to compare myself to gals who just make the OT cuts - although it's not as large of a leap as the first example. I think I'll check out what they are doing in Tipperary prior to sailing over to Never Never Land.
Fort, I'm enjoying myself in the weight room. I need not worry about weight room burnout. Or injuring myself there. Ever. Or moose - well, except for when I'm in a fastskin at which point I am often mistaken for one. :D
This is called selling yourself short. You can either say "Oh I'm sooooo slow, I would be embarrassed to train like an elite athlete," or you can figure out what it takes to swim faster and do it.
Big hint: get stronger. It's almost like cheating. The most effective form of cheating in swimming is anabolic steroids. All they do is make you more muscular. What would happen if you got more muscular without drugs?
