Had a great swim, forgot how it was to get bumped at the beginning. Sighted well, the only thing that slowed me down was the congestion at the turn buoys.

Not a great run, decided to walk the hill that starts the second lap while I was doing the first lap, not a good sign. Seemed like I could not get my heart rate down, legs were not the problem.
