Good Swim. I went out in the front, faster than I often go. Got to clear water after 400 and was alone and near front of my wave.
What would you do differently?:

Was a little close to one other guy for a while. We kept bumping, but it wasn't too bad. Drafted for a little while at the start too.

Felt good out of the water. Rode hard, but I just couldn't put up the kind of power I wanted on the straights. I rode faster here two years ago by around a minute.

Damn Socks! Someone also racked in my spot, which is always annoying.

Work on the sock. Not put race belt on until I am running.

Nice job Eli - and those are some smokin' fast transitions. Do you offer a master class on how to do that so quickly?
