First off, I hate swimming.
Secondly, I was happy with my time. Really it was more like a 10:50 time because they didn't stop the swim timer until I reached T1

practice swimming...

Well it just all started poorly.
It was still wet from the last group of swimmers and when getting off the bike I hit a wet patch and ended up on my butt. Relatively embarrassing, but pretty funny.
