  • I'm impervious to criticism now. I thought this thread would be about drugs, not what swimmers do in masters perogative practices. :bolt: I agree with Fort!!!! Practice is not a competition with a winner at the end! In fact I thought the first 2 rules of master's swimming were "Do exactly what the coach tells you to do unless you want to do something else." There are no rules in practice! As far as GTD the rules state that any yardage should be counted including fins, kick, pull, and drills. In races during swim meets, it's a whole different animal and cheating would be a consideration.
