Breaking 1:00 in the 100 free SCY for the 1st time
Former Member
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 have a friend on the forum who began swimming in his early 40's. (rtodd). He was a former runner.
The 100 free time gradually came down to the minute range. And it invariably became the mystical barrier to break. Kind of like the 4 minute mile.
At a meet a couple of years ago he smashed it with a :57. Very exciting for both him and everyone else cheering him on!
