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.
What this forum repeatedly comes back to by former elites is the sense of entitlement they feel they alone deserve, but no others.
With a nice side helping of the fact they can break records without really trying and anyone who really has to work to do this--and is too proud of the achievement--is just being silly or possibly annoying to them.
