Have you improved?

Have you improved over time? I'm talking actual time improvements compared to lifetime bests. I consistently swam sporadically for several years. Get it? For the past 9 months I have been training and racing fairly consistently and I finally feel like I'm on the verge of actually improving. I have swam a number of best times in off events. I have not bested any of my big ones. What has your experience been? I'm talking about lifetime bests. I'm 33. I swam DIII in college. so, I was ok but not great or anything. I'm mainly interested in your actual experience. Things that have actually happened. Rather than what is supposed to happen.

    I'm a 43 year old female. I didn't swim competitively as a kid, I wonder how much more improvement I can expect to see. I'm guessing that given my age, gender, and lack of competitive swimming experience that I probably will level off soon, but I keep hoping! I'm guessing due to your relatively short background in competitive swimming, you still have a lot of unrealized potential. Great post.
