Practice Swim

I went out just as they were setting up the practice buoys. Small groups of people were wet-suited up and ready to swim, too. I just wanted to get a feel for ocean swimming - Salt Water, Chop, Animals, etc. I had not picked up my wetsuit yet, so I went out in a speedo, goggles, and a swim cap. I actually got an applause from a shivering clan getting psyched up to swim in their wetsuits. I ended up swimming the whole course (one lap). I got stung by little jelly fish, saw one and other fish, too. I fely very buoyant (salty) and felt really good. Swam slow and strong.
