I'm interested in hearing from people that did it for the 1st time in their life as a Masters swimmer. Who is the oldest out there to accomplish this feat? I'm 42 and went for a best of 101.xx for the 2nd season in a row. I think I am going to do it, maybe next year. But I know I am not getting younger.:frustrated:

  • I don't know about 2:00 but you should definitely be able to go faster than 2:11 as I went 2:12 in March and you were kicking my butt last week!I don't know about kicking anyone's butt. Seems I was usually behind the swimmer next to me. And she had a bum shoulder. Looking back at my notes, I did have a bad 200. I botched two or three turns and it cost me. Might have been a 2:08 had I made cleaner turns. I think 2:00 is definitely possible but I'm going to have to have a good race and continue to improve over the next couple years.
