Hi
I am not a strong swimmer picked up later in life. MY IM at lake placid was 1:33 so wasn't last but not many bikes left in T-1. Since this is a wave start I am trying to have the smoothest route possible for a slow swimmer. Any advice- besides going wide? A friend suggested since I am slow to swim inside the buoys since she didnt want me to swim any longer than the 2.4..Or I am just over thinking this- go at the end of my age group wave and swim and just deal with the other waves catching me when it happens.
thx
