I had difficulty in getting my rhythm. I was not relaxed on the first 200mters. I was only able to relax and ease up from the swim back and the 2nd loop.
What would you do differently?:

I have to learn how to relax much faster. I should swim at my own pace and not follow the pack.

The bike course was very difficult with those killer hills. There isn't enough recovery areas. There was no recovery area from T1 to the first hill.
