I tried to start in a little closer to the front on the bouy line. It wasn't too bad, just spent most of the time fighting some chick next to me that couldn't swim straight. I really need to work on the swim fitness.

Warm down:

Walked around, waited for my dad to finish. My mom brought bbq chicken for lunch so I ate with them... yum. Waited for awards, which took forever. I see there were timing issues again with several people missing splits, etc.....
