Didn't push hard at all, felt very comfortable throughout. Ran into a big jellyfish about halfway thru. I knew it wasn't venomous, but it still threw me for a loop for a little bit.

What would you do differently?:

Swim harder - after going out too fast last time, wanted to make sure I didn't make the same mistake today, but probably took it too easy.
