Comments:

I did a poor job navigating. My wave wore yellow caps and the turn buoy was yellow. The lifeguard also had a yellow shirt so it was difficult spotting the buoy. Thought I had a good line but found myself way to the right and had to swim a ways to the left for the turn, probably at least 100 yards. The rest of the swim was okay.

Started off slow while trying to reset my Garmin. My legs felt sore and tight for the first 5 miles and then everything clicked. Slight wind on the return trip and I felt great.
What would you do differently?:

Figure out why my legs feel so sore at the start of the ride.

This was my best Oly run in years. My estimate was 10-10:30 per mile and I averaged 9:37. The last mile was tough.

Nothing.
