I thought of a *** question:
How would you rank yourself among the swimmers at your pool? Are you a better swimmer there, or perhaps even the best? Or...?
You may consider all factors (technique, speed, endurance, form,...), or only the factors that you consider
important.
Let's see if the folks here make up the best of all the pools out there. :cool:

I love answering this -- I am absolutely among the slowest in the pool. But SOMETIMES I'm the fastest in the slow lane! That pleases me.
In contrast, my 10 year old daughter and I went swimming this weekend at a local pool's open swim; when we got to the pool all the lanes were taken and we had a real conundrum. There wasn't a person in the pool that she wouldn't run down within 4 laps but they were all about my speed. Who the heck would we pick to ask to swim with?
We got lucky, the guy we asked to join said that he was just getting out. He might have been intimidated by her obvious skillz!
