My legs took a couple of minutes to transition from biking to running. I took it slow as to not damage my knee.
What would you do differently?:

Build up my strength in my knee to do longer runs and build up my endurance to run faster
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

my knee, not knowing the course

Event comments:

This was a great first tri to do, although it was definitely longer than your avg sprint. Very fun over all:) All of the volunteers were enthusiastic and encouraging:)
