Comments:

A good swim considering I hadn't planned to do it due to a lack of fitness. I would have been happy with anything around 1h 30m.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of fitness. My training has been disrupted for the past 4 months due to travel and a recent illness.

Event comments:

The race started 10 minutes late due to a record number of entrants for a swimming WA OWS event. 4 distances were on offer - 1.25Km, 2.5Km, 5Km and 10Km with over 500 swimmers.
