Post race
Warm down:

50 breast, 50 back

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Other slower swimmers in the lane. Pre-event tension (first event for decades, charity sponsorship). Somewhat lack of preparation (2.5 months of buildup in the pool - too fast.) First attempt at 5000 in the pool.

Event comments:

I'll plan to do it again next year. Gives good early season swim focus
