The swim was good. The wave consisted of M30-39 and the elites so it was a battle ground out there. Considering the swim was short I was happy with my time

Run started off slow as the HIM i did 3 weeks ago was still in my head. I blew up at 4 miles in the HIM and did not want that to happen today. Ran 8:45 to start then at the turn picked up the pace as I had a lot left in the tank. Finished running sub 7 pace..
What would you do differently?:

Start out running sub *'s and then negative split.
