Comments:

I cut the bottom of my foot going down the chute. I thought I had a splinter. I couldnt see without my glasses.... I Shook it off and did the swim. I was thrilled with my swim. I had done alot of open water swim practice with my son who would go out on his surf board and act as my "bouy" and my coach. Many might have heard my son"cheering" on the bridge one mile before the end of the race. He is very encouraging (not to mention loud)
What would you do differently?:

Nothing!!!!!

I took way too long. I was trying to clean my foot, and finally just put on my socks and went. Didnt feel the cut at all till after the race.
