Comments:

coming off flu i did ok, but felt my breathing was sporadic and choppy. pool was only 3 ft deep so hit my hands, and was against the wall which was very odd. heated water hitting me every 3 ft was strange.
What would you do differently?:

concentrate more, focus

Warm down:

walk 2 laps on track, stretch in gym.

my focus and ability to push myself. feel as if race wasn't enough.

Event comments:

good race, but feel as if i could have given way more. no soreness or tired feeling afterward. good indicator of my fitness level however, need to work on my run times and get my swimming time down.
