But I tried a triathlon last month and, wow, swimming in a river against a current is so much different than swimming in a nice calm pool. I ended up panicking and pulling out. I hope to try again next year after having the lessons. I'm hoping that the lessons will also help me with my speed. During the winter I go swimming at the rec centre at 6am. Why 6am? Because that's when all the seniors are there and I can be almost the fastest one in the pool.
