Comments:

Got swam over and elbowed in the nose even after waiting for most everybody to start. Drifted out from the course a fair amount.
What would you do differently?:

Start on the outside. Make sure I am sighting on the bouy not a person. Swim faster, work more on bilateral breathing.

Took top of wetsuit off in water and scooped water in to help with removal. Ran to transition with bottom of wetsuit on.

Rode hard to make up for normal slow swim. Only passed by one person, a woman from the wave behind me who was flying!
Transition 2

Comments:

Thought about taking feet out of shoes but decided I would probably crash, best to practice first.

I am just a slow runner. Not sure if I rode the bike a little slower if it would help.

Got sub sandwich, banana and cookie. Sat and ate with Rick and talked over our races.

Slow running.
