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?
Since I began swimming when I was 48, I wonder at what age the upward curve of improvement due to improving technique will merge with the downward age curve? I am now nearly 57 and am still improving and swimming pb's.
