Even at 8am the sun was up with a vengeance. Happy with split time, and would have been happy with that just in a standalone 5k!
What would you do differently?:

Ease back to maybe 7:40 - 8mpm

Comments:

Not got a lot to compare with as this was my first on-road multi-sport event. Pretty happy with T1 transition.

Nothing

Comments:

Thank goodness the long uphill was mainly shaded, as if it was exposed it would have been a furnace. Very happy with my bike leg, and seemed to cope well on road bike, though the tri-specific bikes had me on the flats in their aero tuck.
What would you do differently?:

Perhaps not put so much in on the bike so that I leave enough for the run.

Comments:

Same as first but hotter. Took a lot of determination to not stop and walk, but at times it felt like I was going slow enough to be walking anyway.
What would you do differently?:

Save a bit on the bike for the final run.

Event comments:

Well organised. These guys have obviously done this before! Would recommend to anyone looking for a challenging sprint distance, as the bike hills can make or break your day.
