Yeah. I get to swim the 1500 (meters) tonight, whoop dee doo. Basically a mile, about 20 minutes, of beating the crap out of yourself.Requires a lot of both. I'm a competitive swimmer myself and as far as endurance goes, it really depends on the events you swim. Sprinters have to worry more about the technical things like the start, turn and finish. Endurance swimmers have to train to keep a fast pace for a long period of time.
However, I can easily say that an incredible amount of disipline is required either way. You have to mentally push yourself to beat that guy next to you. Even during practice you have to have disipline and push yourself to do the best you can.
And then the rest of the weekend is fun filled with events such as the 400 free, 400 IM, and 200 fly...greattt. Oh well, it's all part of my strategy to win all the events that none of the really fast kids swim so I can get high point.
