Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Kick in the head in swim would be the only issue as of right now. I think i was close to a concussion at the end of day.

Event comments:

I enjoyed this race, but it is my first Tri. I will be back next year. This time i will try to avoid any feet to the face.
