I suck. Couldn't relax on the way out. With about 5 minutes to go I finally got it together and worked on technique. Cupping my hands, pulling with the whole arm, keeping the arm in front longer. It made a big difference. Next time I'll have to do it for the whole 1km.
What would you do differently?:

See above.

Take off swim cap while running.

Was more out of breath from swim than I should have been. Caused problem on first monster hill. Fact that I was in early heat helped as I was able to chase down people in front of me.
What would you do differently?:

Keep overall pace quicker. I slacked off at times.

Should have kept pace up hill faster.
