Pre-race routine:

Woke up at 4:30 am, got dressed and had breakfast. Banana and Clifbar. Drank plenty of fluids. Loaded the car and headed out around 5 am.
Event warmup:

Set up transition and used the porto. Put on mu kicks and ran a little bit to warm up. It was a bit chilly for me. Grabbed my wetsuit, took a Gu and swam to the first ornage buoy (end of the dock) and came back for the National Anthem. My wave was #4.
