May a registered usa age group swimmer train in the same practice session with master swimmers? (and visa versa) An extended response with possible conditions will be appreciated. TIA Michael

  • I guess it kinda depends on who the 17 year olds are! We have several national & jr.national qualifiers & finalists on our little team, so I try and stay in the slower lane! I mean seriously, I would be really happy to go under a minute in a 100 YARD free, and several of them go below that on 100 LCM free - heck my own son goes near a minute on LCM and he's doing breastroke! :blush: (is this the smilie for "proud mama"?) Oh, same here as far as the slower lane. But there are a few I can beat. My team just won ASCA Nationals and with 6 or 7 of them from my group qualifying for Sr. Nationals. You should be a proud mom for that achievement.
