Did not know how to sight. Had never practiced sighting or open water swim. zig zagged the entire time.
What would you do differently?:

Practice in open water and practice sighting not in pool

Wrecked bike right after transition while trying to put on watch. Had not practiced getting out of clips. New bike. Never had clips before. Bike flipped over me. Bumped head. Bent derailer. Could ride bike but was fighting me until mile 11 then derailer went into the rear spokes. Had to bend out with vice grips. Lost at least 30 to 45 min messing with bike. Stuck in 18th gear for last 10 miles. Killed my quads.
What would you do differently?:

put watch on in transition. Practice with any new equipment before race.

Comments:

Quads cramped the entire run. Had to run stiff legged. Broken bike in 18th gear on hills killed legs. Did not use hams enough during bike.
What would you do differently?:

stretch after bike and before run. work on using more hamstrings during bike.
