Comments:

third worst swim of my 9 triathlon career. decided to start in the middle of the pack. About 200 yards into it went for a breath and got clocked in the face knocked my googles off. This just added to me coming out to fast and I lost my breath by the first buoy. Terrible feeling. Tried slowing everything down but keep going back to a high pace. Good to get this out in the first short race. took me until 5 miles on the bike to get my breath back.
What would you do differently?:

start from side . slow smooth and steady. increase speed at the end.
