This was my first OWS. It was quite windy and I had a very difficult time breathing. I did the breast stroke for almost the entire swim. It was disappointing, but I let it go and made a note that I MUST practice open water swims for the next 10 weeks.

This was my first triathlon and I found it to be really well organized. As a newbie I had no problems.
