Comments:

Stopped at ~4 kayaks though the first half; in the second half, focused on sight on those near me to the sides (since the sun was blinding to sight ahead) which kept me going stop free to the end.
What would you do differently?:

Sight on those near me to settle into a rhythm.

Event comments:

It IS the first year, so I'll be forgiving this year. There are a lot of little things that need to be changed.
