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 know Ande will tell me to read his kick faster stuff. It doesn't work for me. A couple of all out 50s and I would be done for a week.
You're right. He will. ;) You've got to start somewhere. Maybe the best place to start is by doing easy kicking and don't even worry about how fast you're going. Then you can gradually add in some fast kicking and start timing yourself periodically. Kicking is hard. I get destroyed in kick sets by people who I can beat easily while swimming, but I know it's important so I do it.
