My swim time was about 20-30 seconds slower then what I was shooting for. I expected this due to the car accident and my shoulder and left leg being injured. But it was fun regardless.

I was almost satisfied with my run so not to much except maybe drink more water my mouth was getting to dry.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

I knew I would not be able to perform the way I wanted to because of the car accident but I went ahead and did it anyway. I had a ton of fun and I can not wait until my next triathlon because I loved it.

Event comments:
