Lovely day, really welcoming and supportive event. My first triathlon and any questions were answered and i felt looked after as it was clear it was my first one. The only criticism was in the pool, i know it was said that swimmers overtaking should touch the person, however two other racers both grabbed my ankle which impacted my swim, at one point needing me to stop in the middle of the pool. But brill experience and will do it again

Great event. Second year I've done it and travelled from London. Pretty well organised. Couple of things I'd say could be improved. 1 is people should be started on the swims based on their estimated swim times. I was stuck in a lane with 2 very slow swimmers which effected my overall time. Second thing is it would be good to figure out a route where you don't have to climb stairs and cross bridges over busy roads. Some of the stairs were slippery/unsafe and not ideal if you're trying to beat times etc.
