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.
Many roll their eyes at the thought of taking USMS for anything more serious than health and fun.
I don't know...I didn't see the former Olympian who was being given a "stroke" clinic recently by a masters record holder (who had just beaten this person and broke a masters world record) roll their eyes...
There's a LOT of attitude by a very small group of masters out there...unlike a LOT of attitude by a very large group of triathletes!! :bliss:
