For some reason I didn't seem to have much energy on the swim this morning. I was hoping to finish about a minute sooner. The 10:17 includes about a 40 second run from the pool to T1.
What would you do differently?:

Push a little harder in the middle of the swim.

Comments:

I hit the run leg at about 7:50, by then it was already 75-80 degrees. I ran a good steady pace, I was hoping to run a sub-23 but I was overheating by the turn around. I downed a cup of heed at the turn around but was still hot. I passed about 25 people on the run and wasn't passed by anyone.
What would you do differently?:

Drink more on the bike.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not feeling good at the start of the swim and the warm weather on the run.

Nice job.  It definitely got hot out there by the end of the race.
