Comments:

I was off to a great start for myself. I felt like someone was on top of me about .25 in and was starting to slow down. I had no clue what was going on and started sinking. My wet suit unzipped and I was taking on water. I was singling to the Lifeguards but they didn't spot me. Another Clyde ask me if I needed help and yelled for it and tried to help me re zipp. I finally got help and was rezipped but lost about 5-10 min. Thank God for that other Clyde otherwise I might not be reporting right now. I tried to find Him after the race to thank him. If your reading this right now THANK YOU!!
