Comments:

Rookie mistake-Ran out as far as I could and dove in-realized my goggles were still on my head-damnitt! Put them on and kept going. Being as the swin was so short, I decide to breathe unilaterally instead of bi. This caused my navigation to be off.
Course was longer than 400 yds-maybe closer to 600.
I was 76 in the swim last year, so was happier with 28. However, this is where I need to improve.
What would you do differently?:

Put my goggles on!!!!!!
