This is the fastest swim score I have ever had. Open water swims at Trout lake apparently have paid off.
What would you do differently?:

Swim straighter and sight more

I would have not pushed it so hard the day before on the bike.

I could not find my bike spot at first and wasted a little time.
What would you do differently?:

praciced comming in at T2 and having a better idea how far I need to come down my row

Run was really slow for me. I have been feeling really fatigued lately and was definitely reflected in the run.
What would you do differently?:

Maybe taken my Gu later in the bike so i could have more energy for the run.

Had lunch with Jason and chatted with some of my coworker who came out to chear us on.

Fatigue and muscle soreness

Event comments:

This is where I did my first race so i always try to do well here. Four years ago I did this in 2hrs and 5min. This year I was 18 min faster and made it in the top 10 of my age group. My goal for next year in to improve in the run and bike.
