Subject: RE: Masters Swim question/help Micawber - 2011-04-18 11:22 AM Yes, masters clubs each have their own standards. I've heard that some can be competitively oriented so you should go ask their coach or contact person. Our local club says on their website that you have to be able to swim at least one 25m length of the pool in at least one stroke. You would be fine here. My gym has that same listed requirement. I had to laugh, though, when I did a workout at the same time as them a couple lanes over. I looked at their board and the slowest set was at a 1:35/100 pace. Seeing as that's what i swim when I'm fresh in the water for my first couple hundred only, I decided it wasn't for me. I agree with everyone else, though, go, scope out a workout to make sure you like how its run and maybe see if you can chat with the coach during some longer sets.
