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?

what would people (or he) think if he didn't match his old times?
Nothing. If he did match his old times, most people's jaws would drop. You are not supposed to be as fast as you get older as you were in your prime.
Not everyone understands that of course, but when you are conning Vols into competing again, don't tell him about the swimmers who are actually getting younger as they age up.
