Finally finished the swim. 1500m in 42 mins. That's well slow but included a couple of detours finding the buoys and a zig zag back on the final leg. The triathlon in January is 2000m but I'm hoping with a bit of better navigation and a calmer sea I can make a similar time. Less than 50 mins in Jan is the target. I had felt really sick on the last part of the swim and had contemplated a tactical puke in the sea but I thought it might have made it worse. Most people sprint from the sea into transition but I took a leisurely stroll. I wasn't in the mood for sprinting. I definitely need to do more sea swims before Jan.
