I swam pretty good. The course had a ton of weeds for the first 200m so that slowed everyone down a little. Other that that a good swim.

Swim faster!

What would you do differently?:

Train more
Post race
Warm down:

Try not to throw up. I lest it all out on the race course just like I wanted to do so I could not do much for about 15-20 minutes.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

not enough training
