Comments:

I need to work on this. probably lost 30 seconds staggering out of the water and up to transition area - could have pushed through
What would you do differently?:

swim in the ocean more in preparation
swim was better than first swim earlier this summer
warm up more - my arms don't get oxygen until 10 minutes into race. makes it hard to keep the crawl going - resting arms more than gasping for breath
