What are the odds of getting back to your high school or college times? I'm 40 and just got back into it 7 months ago. I was an age group swimmer from 9yrs old till 18yrs old.
Right now my freestyle is off about a second per 50yd. My 100yd *** was my specialty in high school and I am still about 5 seconds off that time... although I don't swim it nearly enough in practice.
How far off is everyone else off? Is there hope of being as fast as you were as a teenager?
At 60 I am faster than HS,not as fast as college.At 30 I was faster than in college(which I attribute to more race pace work and focus on sprinting.In college the 200 BR was the only distance we did in duel meets and we didn't do enough fast stuff.)
