Overall very frustrated with my swim. The time I finished it in was my target time, but I lacked form, stamina and just felt terrible. I need to just rest into my own pace and ignore the rest of the swimmers.

didn't start with a gel or anything. I started way too fast - and got distracted by the turbulence in the pool, excitement etc. I started well out of my intended pace and form.

struggled getting socks on.

I completely forgot to eat a gel before the ride - and it impacted my performance later in the race

I rode hard, but didn't match my times for this route during prep, so I'm not too happy about that.

I fell off on the second lap during the climbs. I think the lack of hydration and nourishment started to show a bit here.

good time - I was near the run exit.

didn't feel like I had much in the tank at that point. But the time wasn't awful, but slower than I would have liked.

When I prepped for the run I misread the map & it was actually .75 longer than I expected (up a big hill). So on balance I can't complain.

better hydration - don't forget sunglasses - better energy supplements
