Started out way too fast..elvated heart rate and blew -up in swim..cold water was a factor but just worked way too hard..bad error...destroyed rest of the race for me...felt sluggish all day..don't know if its over training (end of huge Peak training block) or what but just didn't have it.

Start slower even pace through out...do not allow myself to lose the race in the swim.
