Swimming is hard

My training for the Vancouver Triathalon has begun,

One thing I have already learnt, which I imagine many other triathletes discover, is that the swimming section can often be the most daunting.

The run and bike sections are very achievable, but the swim scares me.

I have started doing lengths at the local swimming pool.  I can do a length no problem but need to catch my breath before I do the next. 

It is either my technique or lack of fitness that are holding me back.

Looking at the swim map, the most I need to swim between buoys is 200 meters.  That's eight lengths at the local pool.

Lotsa laps ahead of me methinks,
