My best open water swim to date. This is mostly a mental issue. Get to stressed out and nervous at the start.
What would you do differently?:

Calm down

Poured down rain for the last 2 of 3 laps so had to take it easier on the turns and corners.

Took some extra time here to change into dry socks. Smart move and worth the extra minute.

Comments:

Felt awesome on the run. The first 10 minutes were rough but found my stride. Took a caffein gel 15 minutes into the run and I think that perked me up. Felt stronger at the end of the run than at the beginning.
