Felt really strong for the first half of the swim. the rest of the swim was rough. some jerk swam over me about 100 meters from the line and almost drowned me. This is definitely my worst event.

My fastest race pace to date. I was really sapped from the swim early on and had trouble catching my breath at the beginning. I think i can push this harder but i am happy with my progress thus far. Last year at this race i averaged about 17 mph over the course.

Swim better so i could push harder at the beginning
