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.

If you've spent enough time in the water you have encountered these individuals. They are lane bullies and selfish.
What is more important? Making sure the set goes exactly as you planned it? Or, having a good relationship with your training partners?
Man. . . this statement makes me realize that rarely do sets go as I plan or want them to go! It's an unusual day when the set works out for me!!
