Left at least 5 minutes on the table here: I was hyperventilating the first half of swim & I had to stop frequently. By the time I got into my zone, the swim was over. I'm thinking it was due to 59F water temp, not nerves since I have done 3 HIM's, 4 Oly's & felt pretty relaxed. All my pool training got thrown into the trash can. I think my time would be better spent by OWS in the ocean once per week for acclimation rather than the pool.

My effing timing chip strap broke while removing wetsuit. I had to improvise, attaching it to bike shoe. This cost me 1 to 2 minutes?

Had to screw around with timing chip again, untieing it from bike shoe & tieing it to my running shoe laces. Cost me 1 minute?
