Comments:

still couldn't seem to catch my breathe from the swim think I swallowed too much water
What would you do differently?:

I believe it was mostly just the wet suit that started this O2 problem
Post race
Warm down:

didn't have much time for this either the rain came down pretty hard

What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of O2 and as I said this onset came from the swim with that wet suit I rented, next time I'll know better

Event comments:

they can't controll the the weather so I believe they did one heck of a good job in that weather thank you one and all rjh60
