What went well

Touched down at -204 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 51 ft and 108 kt — both inside band
1.49 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Enroute Descent — overspeed warning; speed limits at 0 %, −3.33 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 32.9 ° at 19 %, −1.09 points
Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 154 kn at 76 %, Runway alignment max 37.5 ft at 82 %, −0.56 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.
