Comments:

rought start with the chop in the water. first 400 was parrell to the beach and I couldn't find a stroke without swallowing water.. once I turned the first bouy, I felt more comfortable and I think I had a much better swim.. did start to run out of gas in the last 200, was dizzy when I got out of the water.. took abotu 30-45 seconds to get comfortable.
What would you do differently?:

need more open wate swim
