Torres has opted out of the 100 free in Beijing. Lacy Nyemer(sp?) will swim the individual event in her place.

I would challenge you to do exactly what you are asking her to do. At 40+ years of age, swim the Olympic schedule yourself.....giving max effort to each race and see how you feel....
This is silly. No one would ask me to do this because I am just a decent 45-49 male Masters swimmer. I don't have a lifetime of training and racing experience, an entourage, nor the talent. I did 6 races at Nationals and that was more than enough for me. I felt really bad after my 200 IM, but I think I could race a 50 or 100 with best effort 8 hours later.
