Wouldn't count him out, but I don't think he can hang with Utsch, Erwin, or Shaffer; that is if history means anything in Masters swimming. Utsch, a former UA All-American, pounds me into the ground about annually. Erwin a former Berkeley stud, I believe, has one of the top miles of all time. Shaffer has one of the oldest Ironman swim records in the books--43 minutes at IM Canada in 93. The 40-44 age group is one of the deepest for distance. I got 7th or 8th at nationals in the 1650 about 5 years ago and the time was good enough to win any of the other age groups. I think the top 8 in the 40-44 will all be under 18:00 at Portland.
Jeff Erwin (aka "Spud") is indeed a former Cal Golden Bear!!
