Just an okay swim, but a little better than I feared. This was the best course I've been on in a while. They used massive buoys this time around so it was very easy to see from one to the next.

Comments:

Wetsuit strippers were good, but suit still got stuck on my right heel. As usual, I walked a good part of the transition to get my HR back down before jumping on the bike.

Not sure what happened on the run for this race. I went in very well trained, lost of base in both running and cycling, and yet I faded terribly.
