Comments:

I need more open water swim experience. I can't swim in a straight line and I need to sight better. I kept running into people and having to stop in order to go around them.
What would you do differently?:

Practice open water swimming
Transition 1

Comments:

30 seconds slower than my last triathlon.

Person in front of me stopped at bike mount link so I could not do a running mount.
What would you do differently?:

Don't run directly behind someone to the bike mount line.

My best bike performance so far. Stayed in areo, except when drinking.

There was a turn right before the finish so I did not see it coming. When I saw it, I did not have enough time to start taking my shoes off.
What would you do differently?:

Need to learn to run without socks.

22 out of 23 and I'm still really happy with my run. I only stopped twice, briefly at mile one and mile two. Huge improvement compared to my last triathlons.
