Comments:

Finally felt comfortable on an open water swim. Ive accepted that Ive lost speed since last year but at least i feel comfortable. In order for me to progress in my AG I think I need a personal swim coach. Passed some 334 and unders but got passed by some 40-44s. Had an overall good swim though
What would you do differently?:

I just need to get some speed
