I started at the back of my wave closest to the bouy. Swam well but I didn't sight well at all. There was alot of traffic and the water was not clear at all! Could of def sighted better but my goal time was 9:30 and I swam 9:29 so an overall success!!
What would you do differently?:

Start at the front and sight better.

I felt very good the entire bike ride. I was surprised at how comfortable I was. My goal average was 16.5mph and I actually averaged 17.8mph so a huge success for me.

Had another perfect transition considering I had to put on socks and tie my shoes.
What would you do differently?:

Learn to run without socks and put speed laces on my shoes.

Comments:

Heart rate was prob too high the entire time but I just dealt with it. I had plenty leg left so I was glad to see that I didn't push it too hard on the bike. The first and last miles were my fastest. I def left it all out there, I didn't have anything left at the end. Overall I am pleased, I wanted to be around 26mins so another success!!
What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Post race
Warm down:

Just drank some water stretched and chatted with family.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of speed training on the bike and run.

Event comments:

Awesome race!! I'm def going to do this on again!! This was by far the funnest race I've ever done.
