Notes
water was pretty rough. I wore a wetsuit, but its getting warm for that. kept effort at moderate/steady the entire time. i worked on swimming breathing both sides (right out, left back to stay away from waves) and sighting without lifting my head much or interrupting my rhythm. it was really tough swimming against the waves, but i find i swim a LOT more straight now no matter which side i'm breathing to. That makes sighting in rough water easier since i don't drift off much, if a wave hits me and I don't get a view.
