Comments:

Very congested at first buoy turn. Some of the olympic distance athletes caught up on second lap. Almost treaded water around the buoy and i remembr one moment of panic where I thought I wouldn't make it. Once I rounded the first buoy though, things opened up and it was quite a good swim aftr that. Considering I just learned to swim, okay.
What would you do differently?:

Swung wide on buoys to avoid some people. WOuld probably be better with more experience and navigate a little better line.

Push harder on the run.

Event comments:

Swim was congested so not the most comfortable race...... also seemed to be less beginners compared to some of the other races.
