Got open water anxiety that I read about. Had a hard time breathing. Ended up doing the whole swim breaststroke. Started on the outside and in the back. Just need to get over the fear of drowning!

1st race. Did a lot of things wrong. Will get better. Hopefully my next swim will be better and have an easier time breathing.
