Comments:

3 minutes faster than last year.
First 200m were the hardest. Nobody too draft after the first 100m.
The breathing became easier in loop 2 and 3.
Tried to go fast during the last 150m.
What would you do differently?:

Hmm...Sight more often. Pay attention to the form, hips and high elbow pull, all of this went through the roof.
