Pre-race routine:

Wake up, drop duece, and have me a yummy yummy PB & J with nanners. I have always liked getting to transition very early to get setup and give myself plenty of time to chit chat before warmup time. Find friends, encourage others, etc...
Event warmup:

I like to find a nice quiet piece of pavement or grass to do some stretching. Then go for a 5 minute jog to get things loosened up. Then off to the water to swim at least a couple hundred yards.

Comments:

I ran in an dove, but my HR chest strap was pushed down and I had to readjust it. I got halfway to the bouy and was 10 yards ahead of everyone else in the wave. I caught many other waves and just plowed through to the exit. I felt very comfortable in this portion, even in dealing with wave traffic.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing at this distance, wetsuit for longer distances

My quads felt tight for the first half, but they losened up in time for the run. Had a nice downhill to get out of the shoes without losing speed.
What would you do differently?:

Probably more warmup or stretching
