Comments:

First time in a race for getting the wetsuit off - wasn't so bad. Didn't come right off while stepping on it, but it slid off feet with just a bit of pulling.
What would you do differently?:

Get the wetsuit off with stepping on it... run and jump on bike without stopping.

Water station on run was a bit hectic - missed water twice
Not enough water after the race was available, but the food was great!
Well run event - will definitely consider it again next year.
