Swam waay to hard at the start. I was out of breath, gassed and had to turn over to backstroke to regain composure and let my heart settle. I should never to this again without training for it. I wasted lots of time just on my back. and since the current was against me, I was barely making any forwared movement if at all and may have been sliding back.
What would you do differently?:

Start easy or medium and settle into the pace for the race.

No time waas captured for t1. It was smooth and I didn't have any issues. I did not put shoes on the bike. I took the time to put on socs also.

Good hard ride. I made up some time on the bike. I kept up with those that are good riders. Brian Frew and Mike Pirnat for instance finished right around the same time on the bike. I had no cramping at all. No feelings even close to cramping. So this was a good thing!!

Lots of shade on this run. I am not feeling any pain so I'm only limited by my fitness. If I can get back to where I was a few years ago, I'll be very very happy.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around. Hung out with Mike Pirnat and his wife (Red) and one of their friends.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Better execution of the swim. Better fitness on the Run.

Knowing where the fluids are, how they will fit on your bike, how much to reach for, and when to reach for it should be understood prior to ever setting foot on the course.
