First Open Water Swim!

Mike and I rented some wetsuits from Gazelle Sports for the week.  We figured it would probably be a good idea to try a swim in the open water (as opposed to the pool) before the actual race.  Good Idea.  At first I was thought it was awesome, but then the pressure from the suit, the cold water on my face, and not being able to breathe very well got to me and I had a tiny anxiety attack.  So, needless to say, I will be going back out over the next few days to try and get used to swimming in the open water with a wetsuit on.  It did feel great being a little higher in the water though!!  4 more days!  Choi...
