JELLY FISH - they freaked me out. I started out swimming strong, slightly left of the crowd though did my share of kicking and being kicked. As we got out beyond the jetty there was current and some chop. nothing horrid enough to get a few mouthfuls of water.
What would you do differently?:

Slow swim for me - need to figure out why pool not translating to OWS

did not really push it. Then the embrocation started to burn my legs and feet. NOT on the bike where I needed it, but now on the run.
Post race
Warm down:

got gear together and walked to car

What limited your ability to perform faster:

undertrained. Performance similar to my first season which this whole season has basically been a restart after 2 years away - about 15 minutes slower than I should be but not displeased with the performance given my training efforts.

My first triathlon was at age 56. At first I was just the cameraman at my daughter's first triathlon, then I am doing the races that she has done.
