Comments:

Swim felt great despite my nervousness when it was announced that wetsuits would not be allowed. I latched onto a swimmer's feet, then switched to a faster swimmer when opportunity presented itself. I then sprinted at the end to a great finish to the leg.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

I skipped putting on socks because they were soaked. I don't think this affected me.

Overall, I was very disappointed in my bike. When the race was shortened, I think I wasn't mentally into it and because the pavement was wet I was purposely very careful.
What would you do differently?:

Everything.

What would you do differently?:

I need to remember to get my feet out of shoes while on bike.

Legs felt heavy, mostly because shoes were soaked through. Still, I toughed it out and had a good final sprint.
