I brought both wetsuits just in case. I don't like cold water so I wore the full wetsuit. I started great and to fast as usual. Then I found a pair of feet that were going slow. I stayed there and relaxed. Last bouy I passed him and found a faster pair of feet. This swim was longer but accurate so I think I PR my swim.

I started out strong but my lack of training kicked in half way through.
My time last year was better and so I was hoping for a little improvement but maybe next year.
