Race report

V14. Solo in choppy conditions on Lake Samsonvale. Tried to do a negative split (and succeeded) but my average speed was slower than my 18 k speed two weeks prior. Bit of chop would have contributed but probably went a bit too slow for the first 3 km, etc. Will try a faster start next time. Thanks PaddleQLD and fellow competitors.
