Sorry, but I find the above comment absurd. I am saying this as the coach of a
women with so many age group records that I can't count them all (8 national, 1
world this year alone) and who was the oldest person (at 52.5) ever to compete
in the (real) U.S. National Championships. However, I've also coached people
who were in the (real) World Championships and the Olympics. Sorry, absolutely
no comparison.
