PDP.

IBS, TBAB, TSAGBC (swimming then biking a bit then standing around getting bloody cold)

It was not my day. 70k into the bike I called it quits. I'm OK, but I didn't have any more in me.
Fuller report to follow, but here's my face of failure

I think combination horrible water, deceptively long swim course, and SSRI induced nausea were the biggest problems, but fueling could also have be improved, as well as over all fitness.

My swim was slow - but suunto reckons also 2k and the gps trail doesn't have any particularly crazy jumps, the first 40k on the bike was actually pretty solid.
The nausea was really unhelpful, though.
