The longest swim of my life ensued. Battling panic, hyperventilation, and being lapped by a group of men swimmers took every single ounce of energy that I had. Jon and Nancy were forced to watch a floundering woman use a doggie paddle and back float method to complete a swim that took 6 times longer than it should have.
