What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of swim training and not coming in rested.

Event comments:

Huge lines during check in on Saturday and another HUGE line to get your stuff out of transition after the race. I hope WTC gets some of these worked out before the Peak and 70.3. Other than that a really well organized race!
