Open Water
Did a little bit of open water over the weekend, and man it sucks. It's going to take a few more times to get comfortable. I know it's a mental thing, but my heart was pounding and I couldn't get my breathing under control. Pretty similar to when I started swimming in a pool, so I know I can get over it. I plan on focusing on breathing for the next couple of months, I figure if I can lengthen the time I can swim without breathing the more I'll feel comfortable in the water. We'll see.
