OG, great job man! I'm so pumped for you. T1 always sucks, and it just gets harder once you have to start battling a wetsuit. It'll always be that way, so you got the first one out of the way. Great job on the PR in the pool, there's always something to be said for how excited you are to be at the event (and having the missus there to cheer you on!).
Don't sweat the bike time, they'll probably still be making some adjustments. And I can't imagine, even if you had a few rough transitions, that you lost over 10 minutes in transition. So their time was probably off a bit.
And you had your first battle with linguine legs. No matter how many bricks you do, you never practice at the speed you push yourself at in the race. It's great when you get your legs under you.
Great job Triathlete. Hope you do many many more!
