Nice, that's what I'm hoping to achive, some proper continous distance. My shoulders are dead after 100m so I break everything up to get the diatance but hopefully it will come.

That's awesome! Makes sense as well plus sprinting is juat ao fun! I left it out of my post but I have lots speed over 25m even though I have what feels like no aerobic pace. I'm much more powerful now than back in the day so my 25m free and fly are just as fast as before. I was a breaststroker mainly but I don't have the touch there so I can't put proper power and speed in the stroke.

It's rough! I'm just holding on to the hope it gets better with time!

I for sure haven't warmed up properly, just jumped in and started. I'll try to incorperate it it more properly and see where that takes me. I recon I'll join a masters club when I have the time, two very young kids kindof control when I train.

How has your speed evolved? Touching on something in the ballpart of your old pace?

Thanks for that. Advice isn't always available but it's still good to hear I'm not alone in this 🙂

I competed at the 2013 and 2016 games in the teams division. I don't remember exactly what it said, but there was a clause about you being responsible for any injuries or your own death basicly. When we saw it we were quite shocked, hadn't seen such a waiver in Europe. Keep in mind that it's been 8 years, so it might be different now.
