Simple. Forget what you are. What do you want to be? I notice there's been a lot of dissing of sprinters here, and I might join in, but ...
If you could be any kind of swimmer, what would you want to be and why? I'm only posting five options; vote for one. This is a nice daydream, but you have to pick your heart's desire and explain below.

I'm a wannabe sprinter but am going to diverge from the thundering herd.
I voted for open water. The few times I've done OW swims I've really enjoyed myself. Unfortunately, I must travel 4 hours or more to find an OW swim unless I want to swim (alone) in one of the local reservoirs. Even then it's 30 min drive to one or an hour to the other. And if I'm going to drive that far I'm going to fish, not swim!
Good for you, Poolraat. As a runner to an ex-runner, nothing better than the open water. I love it. Wish you had some closer.
