Comments:

Overall decent swim, appears course was probably a little short, but oh well.
What would you do differently?:

Need to practice better breathing on both slides, not just left and refine stroke.

Comments:

I could not believe how many times I got pasted, even going downhill at 33 MPH. Av CAD said 81, but that seems really low, When I was watching it was about 100, I was having a hard time at 90 in a high gear so I kept dropping to an easier gear, but probably hurt my speed.
What would you do differently?:

Next year do more time trial rides vs. long rides. Goal: Increase speed. Get used to my Cervelo!

Comments:

Required a lot more mental toughness the first 2 miles than I expected, but went well after the half way point.
