Pre-race routine:

Arrived 1 hour prior to race; good amount of time to prepare
Event warmup:

Warm-up - consisted of 5-10 minutes jogging.
Should have swam in lake in wetsuit as warmup
Swim

Comments:

Started hyper-ventilating 200 yds into race; had to pull out. Problem was maybe wetsuit was too tight? Should have practiced in wet suit prior to race day, and probably done 100-200 yds warm up swim.

Pulled out of swim, walked back to T1. Completed rest of race without timing chip. Left for bike section after main pack came into T1, completed rest of the race as normal.
