Why do some return and some do not?

It's been cool for me over the last few years seeing and competing against a number of guys from both my age group and collegiate days. However, when I think back to my college team, in particular, I'm struck by how many guys are NOT back swimming and competing in Masters. I realize this is probably the wrong audience to ask (since we're back in the pool), but, since for me swimming & competing go hand in hand and I love swimming, I'm still puzzled why more people don't come back to the sport and to racing?

  • He's never come out and said that as a reason. It's what us swimmers have felt based on what he has said. But I need you all to tell him he's wrong and to swim! I would love to have him at a meet. Teach him about the 80-20 rule. It's real, I'm not making it up. In my particular case, the numbers are currently at about 91-25.
