Pre-race routine:

up at 4:45 am, had oatmeal and coffee, drove to meet my team mates, loaded up one car and got to the race site ~6:20am, my one teammate had never done a tri before so I was exdplainign alot of stuff to her, spent time trying to find friends
Event warmup:

swam about 300m, water felt good, a little slick on the ramp getting in/out

Comments:

had a great start to my swim, drafted off a few strong guys the first 50m, tried to keep pace with them but they were too strong, about 1/2 way through the course I crossed paths with another swimmer and lost my goggles, took me far too long to recover from that, didn't get back in my groove until it was too late, I'm a bit disappointed in my performance today; especially since I was only doing the swim,
What would you do differently?:

not get kicked in the face, it was also over ann hour from my swim warm up to my wave start, ( and about 31/2 hours since I'd eaten) I think I should have taken some Gu before I started, I started to feel a bit sluggish out there

I love this race. It was my first OW tri last year. It is a great event. It was fun being on a team and getting my running buddies interested in tri's. :)
