Comments:

Water was warm. Swim was good. This is the first race, I really "raced" the swim and no goggle issues this time! Overall I can't complain, but I really want to break the 2:00 pace barrier!
What would you do differently?:

Work on drafting.

What would you do differently?:

It was hot. I find I have trouble goig fast when its hot...do I need to train more in the heat?? This was tough to judge since have been out of training more of less for the previous 2 weeks due to illness.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of training in the preceding weeks due to a stomach virus

Event comments:

There was one drink station at the run around...one more station would have been really nice
