This was my first triathlon and consequently my first time swimming this summer. Also first time really swimming at all more than recreationally, so it went pretty poorly.
What would you do differently?:

I intend to do some serious swimming workouts before my next triathlon to improve my form and endurance.

Only 4th or 5th bike ride of the season, starting to get cadence back and felt pretty good. focused too much on staying in the saddle to save legs tho.

Remove bike shoes while coasting in.

Felt superb. The discipline I've been training with the most this season and it showed. was able to just about sprint in the last mile of this run.
What would you do differently?:

Not save myself so much on the bike, push harder earlier in the run.
