The buoys were set up the previous night. High winds blew them out further out. This increased the overall distance. The swim time also included a 100 yard run from the beach to transition.

Comments:

This was sub par for me. I was expecting to run around 25 minutes. The first half mile was really slow, my legs felt tired. I started to pick up but I couldn't shake the side ache. I finally felt decent on the last half mile, good enough to sprint it out and pass a couple of people at the finish.
What would you do differently?:

suck it up and run faster!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My run. I need to do more bricks
