  • Dunno about selfish, it just seems a tad wimpy to me...as much as one can say that about a 41-year-old AR-holder. This whole "I'm so old I can't see the scoreboard and I have aches and pains" thing is getting...old. Racers like to race. I don't care how old she is, she's not made of glass. She swims 25,000 a week, does other training, and has hired people full time whose sole purpose is to help her recover. She can handle a few races, it didn't seem to hurt her at Trials.
