Comments: I think training was quantitatively enough, but may need to change type a little.
This event was the worst organised I had done. All the races I have done this year were with the same company, so it's not normal for it to be like it was on this day. I think they had tried to take on too much and were trying to fit too many races in to a single day with the number of people they had and the room they had to do it.
Having waves heading towards eachother in the swim was crazy. The transition was disorganised and there was no agreement between people as to where you should and should be entering/exiting for access and it seemed to change several times too. Not a major issue, but trying to co-ordinate where to meet my family several times was difficult when you got allowed in one way but then got sent out at the other end of an athletics track !
Sadly a bike was stolen at this race too, but on the positive side for everyone else it will hopefully improve the security around the transitions...although
