Oh my goodness! What a slow swim. I was very nervous and actually swam to the side a couple of times to take a break! But, I finsihed!
What would you do differently?:

Keep swimming! I stopped a few times but all in all I didn't really need to.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nerves on the swim as this was the first tri that I've finished.

I did that race last year.  Did they still have grass growing in the pond/lake?  It was really fun swimming with the lake grass sticking to you.

Good job on the run, and great job fighting through a tough swim.
