Hi Everyone! I am just getting back into swimming after 9 years. I swam from age 7-17. Please visit my blog at http://swimagain.blogspot.com for a more detailed intro.

    Thanks. That is definitely a goal, and I think it should be reachable in a couple of years with proper training. I guess this brings up a question, though, has anyone been able to better their lifetime bests after a 5+ year break??? Dare I mention Dara Torres? It's probably a question of how much and how hard you are willing to train. Very few people with a job and family have the time or inclination to train like a 17 year old.
