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?
I peaked at 22, but I am really hoping to top those times when I'm 36, otherwise before I hit 40.
I'm already a faster backstroker now than I ever was before.
