Thanks for the vote of confidence Kyra! I was feeling really confident until one of my more negative friends told me I’d really struggle. I hadn’t even thought about needing to learn how to breathe properly!

It was not until I started training for my first triathlon that I actually learned how to breathe properly while swimming. In my 2nd season of triathlon, I was already doing 1.5 km in races. Now I swim up to 2k in races no problem. You will remember how to swim. 🙂
