My first ever ocean swim! Quite happy, considering.
What would you do differently?:

Not a lot. I still need to work on freestyle though, ended up having to do breaststroke as i found it difficult to freestyle in the choppy conditions.

Slow drying feet and putting on shoes. Need to look at alternatives.

The headwind was strong. Suprised at my time though, i thought i rode faster.
What would you do differently?:

Need to improve how i train on the bike. I train to casually and bring that into races with me.

Comments:

Good transition. Didnt make up any places but was faster than most in transition due to having my running shoes on the bike.

Very happy with the run. First time i've not had to stop for a breather. I felt like stopping but pushed through and finished strong.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Went into race with a cold. Main limiting factor though is that i dont train at a high enough intensity.
