This photo was taken at the U.S. Masters Swimming Short Course Meters Championships in Walnut Creek this past fall. These properly rested swimmers, I&#160;believe, are from Tamalpais Aquatic Masters.

(Remember, I came to U.S. Masters swimming to feel more confident in the swim portion of triathlons.)
