For all of you who know Leslie the Fortress Livingston, this should help you know her better.
For all of you who don't know Leslie the Fortress Livingston, prepare for the thrill ride get-to-know-Leslie event of the year.
A little background: Leslie is the 4th woman in history in the 45-49 year age group to beat 30 seconds in the 50 SCM butterfly.
She did this at age 47, and it is possible that she is actually the FIRST woman in history this old to break 30 at the age (assuming the previous 3 were 45 or 46.)

This small film will help you understand all that goes into becoming an extraordinary human being/swimmer. Oh, and there's a little about Leslie in this, too.
Just joking. It's all about Leslie. With some guest appearances by Paul Wolf, Julie "Mulie" Oplinger, Jeff "the Barbarian" Roddin, and Jim Thornton as "the narrator."
Please enjoy before Leslie forces Jim Matysek to take this down.

Oh for crying out loud it's Masters Swimming not the Olympics. Leslie stands to gain a big fat nothing from this aside from personal satisfaction.
It's like me seriously thinking I am the fastest guy in my agegroup for the 200 BR at Zones. Sure I won because nobody else swam, but do I really think that nobody my age there could beat me?
Same for 50 FL top ten... enjoy it, but Leslie is faster than anyone who went over 29.99. We have video proof--and the pool was sanctioned.
