Good swim. Went out comfortably and kept form. Didn't push as hard as last Terramuggus race, and ended up improving my time by 53 seconds. Breathed well and stayed relaxed. Also drafted really well for the first time.

Not much. felt really good

Really good transition. Had problems getting suit over timing chip again. Only issue though. Everything else went very well. Great mount and got into shoes well.
What would you do differently?:

Figure out how to keep timing chip from becoming an issue with wetsuit.

Good ride. Didn't come out of aero much. Stayed on the seat through the hills. Felt pretty good, but maybe pushed a bit too hard and it might have affected the run.

Maybe drank too much.
