Pre-race routine:

Drove up morning up. Felt rushed for time with having to do packet pick-up and transition stuff.
Event warmup:

Swam a little

  • 1640 yards
  • 01m 37s / 100 yards
Comments:

Felt like I was dying in the suit. Was super tight and couldn't breath. Considered taking it off for lap 2 but water was pretty cold. Came out of the first lap and walked down the beach to re-enter. 2nd lap was better but still had some constriction in my chest.
What would you do differently?:

Different suit.
