Why does it appear many masters swimmers are taking USMS so seriously?
What's the difference between the typical "selfish train all day", "it's all about me" triathlete and a masters swimmer who seriously trains as hard as they can.... particularly to focus on setting masters records?
Seems like there is a growing parallel between triathletes and many masters swimmers these days.
Isn't it just "masters swimming" for health and fun in the end?
Does a masters record really mean that much?
Is this a good thing? ..... or a turn off for those who look on with amusement.

Maybe Mr. Negative just saw the discussion on ART this morning and couldn't help himself.
Too much dedication to swimming isn't a bad thing and I doubt it is a turn-off to other masters swimmers. However, I am surprised sometimes by the amount of training that some masters swimmers put in and the general obsession with tech suits, etc. I guess I am probably jealous that I lack the same motivation.
