Lots of chop and current between the 2nd and 3rd buoy. The wind was a major factor in the chop. Swallowed a lot of water on the leg.

Had a hard time with the zipper. Again a long trek from the water to T1. I hate that. Walked most of it. Was worn out from fighting with the waves and the zipper. Not bad once in T1.
What would you do differently?:

A little quicker pace from the water to T1

Didn't have a water for ride. That Hurt. came off the bike in desperate need of a drink. Not a bad time considering the wind.
