Decent swim felt good all things considered. Got caught behind a few ppl. found a gap and moved thru them got hit in the face but goggles stayed on just tilted a bit. Went full out last 200 meters or so. Felt strong.
What would you do differently?:

Next time move to front. Try not to get stuck behind ppl. Do better job of moving around them.
