Masters' swimmers have been proving it for years and Dara proved it with an exclamation point in Beijing that you can go faster at 40-something than you did at 20-something. As someone 15 days older than Dara, what I wonder is this: At what age will the aging process take over and, despite whatever training you do (& without resorting to drug enhancements), you will slow down?
Peak age: physiologically. Behind me.
Peak age: best technique through coaching. Ahead of me.
Peak age: greatest interest and effort, genetic endowment maximized, followed by loathing and slacker existence. More ahead of me.
Dunno how to answer. But pretty sure by 90.
