Dara Torres
Pretty amazing what she is doing at the trials.
Also that is one great body for a 41 year old female.

Saw a pic of her in the paper the other day and ugh...she looks like Frankenstein, as if someone has done experiments on her. Yuck.

She's better at 40 than at 20. And now she's is the fastest 50 M woman American swimmer ever. All this at 41?
Is it physically possible to be better at 41 than any other woman ever in the history of US swimming? |

Over that short of distance I think it's possible.

I believe in her case that it's possible. She's the most tested woman in US swimming history and she's competing in a strength event that utilizes perfect stroke.
She has also reportedly spent 100K on training coaches. So I believe in her case she's clean until proven otherwise. Plus I've met her once when she wanted to have my baby, back when she was 20 and I was a bit older.

Sure it is. Look at what Roger Clemens did in his 40's. Look at Barry Bonds. You bet it can be done.

Weren't you the one defending Barry Bonds last year?
