Great local Triathlon with an open water swim

A tea/coffee/snack bar would have been great for those of us staying for the juniors after our races. Very friendly marshals and lots of help available if needed.
See you next year !

A very good closed roads event, run by local people

Ideal for first timers and those who want to pb as the course is fast

Excellent event - Have now done it 7 times out of the 8 times it has taken place

Seemed to be longer queue's to register than usual

Was very hot on the run and could have done with a second water station. Also those staffing the water station to be a bit more aware of the dangers of overdoing it in hot weather and making sure people were pouring water over their heads to cool down as well as drinking it.

Love the traffic free bike course with lots of other competitors around you.

Well organised, and friendly. Flat and fast, definite PB course. I also can't think of another Standard distance tri that is such good value.

Great value race to get a fast time!

On such a hot day, it would have been nice to have a water station on the far side of the run course - but that's a minor quibble. Well organised, superb value race

Always one of my favourites but it must not get too big.

The numbers were increased this year and it caused a few problems. It wasn't apparent in the senior races but was so in the junior races as the juniors were running and cycling on areas with many spectators spectating or walking across in front of the competitors. There needs to be a larger spectator area that competitors don't enter whilst racing. Also, I was disappointed there was not more in the way of catering. I was so looking forward to a bacon roll!
There did seem to be a few timing issues which surprised me. A member of my triathlon club was first in the first of the Sprint waves but did not feature in the final results! When he obtained his time chit after he had finished, it was all wrong and suggested he had take over 20 minutes to complete the swim. He was first out of the water and would have completed it in around 13 minutes.
My overall comment is "well done and thank you" to John and the rest of the team, again.

Really good, welcoming event.

Registration queues are the only damper on the event. Although really efficient the queues seem to become a problem. I remember this from the event I completed 2015.

Swim Ride and Run rout's the best i'v experienced. I think the sprint distanced were the longest i'v raced but no problem.

A great event.
