Comments:

This continues to be my worst leg of the tri. I wonder if part of it has to do with wearing a wetsuit. I start off okay, but quickly loose ground and begin to backstroke.
What would you do differently?:

need to work carefully on my endurance

Comments:

need to work on getting in and out of suit. also did not sprint to the transition area b/c breathing was out of wack from swim

What would you do differently?:

move more quickly to the transition and get out of suit better
