Comments:

Fog cut course short. Could not really see. This was scary. Race start delayed. I have difficulty siting anyway and this made it even more difficult. Seemed at times like you were swimming in a cloud and only hoped that the swimmer in front of you could see better. I was so glad when this part was over.


What would you do differently?:

Get a full sleeved wet suit for cold water races
