Contrary to last year when the heats were running ahead of schedule, this year things bogged down tremendously. My heat time was at 9am, but I entered the "fast lane" line at about 7:45 to get out and on the course before the sun was too hot. The fast lane got me in the water at 10:05am...my heat would have been even after that. How frustrating. Had to pass 3 of the 4 other people in my lane. Swim time reflects a good 1/4 mile run from the pool to the transition area - my actual swim was 7:45.

Swim seemed chaotic...uncharacteristically so for this race.
