Had a lot of trouble breathing in the waves. Much different than pool swimming. Ended up breaststroking a majority of it

What would you do differently?:

Practice a little harder at getting shoes and socks on quickly. Wear a tri suit so as not to deal with a shirt while wet.

Your swim sounds similar to my first experience with OWS in a race. Good luck and keep after it!
