Should have swam in a lake prior to actually doing a tri. There's no comparison to swimming in a pool.

Event comments:

Good first race for me. Swim might have been better if they did not have to re-direct Olympic distance swimmers to do the 500M length due to water temp. It was cold and overcast but I'd rather have that than too hot.
