Never felt comfortable on the swim. It was only my second open water swim. I never found any sort of rhythm.
What would you do differently?:

More open water practice.

  • 04m 30s
Comments:

I put body glide on my ankles and wrists. I was able to get the wetsuit off much easier than any other time I've taken off a wet suit (water skiing, diving, etc).
What would you do differently?:

Get a tri singlet. Pulling a bike jersey over a wet body is not easy.
