If it's at all any reassurance, our sport relies heavily on technique. You can always refine something to make yourself more efficient.
Sure we all slow down, but there will always be some give and take between being super fit, or having great skills.
If you want to run or bike fast, just do more of it and pound yourself into the ground while trying.
That approach doesn't necessarily apply to swimmers who like to remain competitive amongst their peers.
