Afraid of Masters Swimming

I want to work on improving my swimming to hopefully do a triathlon. I am really a lousy swimmer. I'm always the slowest person in the pool. My endurance is fine from running etc., but my strokes/form are terrible. Everyone says masters swimming programs are the best workouts, but I don't want to go near one because I would lag behind even the oldest, most out of shape members. What should I do?

  • Today I was talking to a coach of more than likely, THE LARGEST masters swimming organization in the world. He told me his favorite thing about swim coaching is working with brand new non-swimmers who stroll into their program. After 30 years in the masters swimming business, this is the only thing that gives him a rush of love for the sport. (and he was an Olympic swimmer!) Take the plunge :)
