Breaking your foot might actually help you out. Runners tend to kick too hard when they first start swimming. In distance swimming, legs are more for balance and control, like the tail of an airplane. Save the big kick for the last 100 meters. I was a runner before I was a triathlete, so I know of which I speak. The best swimming I ever did was the summer after knee surgery. I had to use crutches all spring, so my swimming was much like your situation. I used the time to work on form, balance, and endurance.
