Comments:

I was just on a relay team and did the swim part so I am 1/16 of an ironman. Water was freakin COLD but caught up the to some of the two groups who left before my wave(last wave of the day) so 10min ahead and almost hit a channel marker which would have been fun . Turned by the Boat and I looked around and noo one was around me or infront of me but everyone was wayyyy to the right hand side by the docks in the but I kept swimming and shot pass the island before seapath marina and and BAM I am at the docks.Awesome swim enjoyed it alotttttt
What would you do differently?:

get a long sleeve wetsuit and put shoes or flip flops on at the dock where we get out cause my feet where frozen and that asphalt was not fun to run on
