I took it easy in the beginning to see how my leg would be and it was fine.

Short walk with some water and went and stood in the lake for a couple of minutes.

Event comments:

Poorly organized with start times changing, no lunch after-wards (only rejuvenation) and the medal presentation all screwed up with some people getting medals and some not.
