Small Steps in OWS

Okay Did my first OWS July 5th (200 yard trY a tri) Full bore panic!
3 weeks ago did my second swim in a quarry near home, stuck close to shore in short spurts.
Tonight went back to the quarry and did about 850 yards (My next race distance)
Going back next week and the week after etc, my goal is to get up to about 1200 yards non stop by Sept 7th. My last race of  season is  Sept 13.

To paraphrase thye only way to get better at OWS is to OWS
