Swim felt pretty good overall. Seemed to be in the mix with people a little more this year. Enjoyed the warmer water temp.

Got a flat at almost the halfway point. Looked like a large staple caught me. Took me about 7:30 to change the tire out. Very frustrating to see everybody pass by. Once back on the bike, pushed pretty hard to catch a buddy that passed me. I think it hurt me a little on the run. In the tire fix process, turned my bike upside down and lost all my water so hydration was a issue through the rest of the bike and in the run.
What would you do differently?:

Avoid the staple.

Heart rate was up from the bike and took a while to settle into a good pace. Had a hard time taking in fluid on the run.
