swim was brutal, so many people and my wetsuit was to tight so the breathing was labored for me.
What would you do differently?:

different wetsuit, stay to the far outside and maybe wait and go with the novice group.

Event comments:

Terrible post race. Huge line for food so we skipped it and couldn't get bike out of transition forever. Were letting 10 people in at a time. Then they finally opened it up so everyone was in at once, which means everyone was trying to leave the parking lot at the same time. WORST post race ever!
