Comments:

Slow, but this was all about endurance and completing the swim without a wetsuit
What would you do differently?:

Possibly try a little harder from the outset
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of base training through the winter, and probably technique

Event comments:

Glad to have completed the challenge albeit a bit slower than I would have liked. Pleased to have done it without wetsuit
