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.
It is just masters, so be as nutty, obsessive, and do whatever you want with your money, including buying the most expensive equipment out there. If you have a special attachment to your pull buoy, have it cast in platinum (platinum is impervious to chlorine). Since we all are adults now, we have learned that the only opinions that matter are our own, the person that signs our paycheck, and our significant other. Do what you want.
Acting cool is for the middle school kids.
