had a strong swim, caught in the middle of my wave and got kicked in the face once but overall a strong swim. havent had much practice, 1 OWS, and wasnt used to the choopy water and i swallowed a decent amount of salt water.

walked around

What limited your ability to perform faster:

bike legs a bit tired, small cramp due to gas

Event comments:

a great race with a nice easy course to start the season. only complaint really is that sharp turn getting out of transition and only 1 water station to have on the run, whats with the lack of water in eventpowerli races!? overall im happy with how the race turned out despite being cold.
