What would you do differently?:

Swim more at the end, wading the last 25 feet slowed me down I think.
Transition 1
  • 03m 43s
What would you do differently?:

Forgot to unbuckle shoes so I had to unbuckle them before putting them on. Gloves wasted a lot of time, wouldn't use them again. Put a sock on upside down, had to fix.
