  • Organised?Yes
  • Events on time?Yes

  • Lots of volunteers to help?Yes
  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

They screwed up the swim course, so that's not ideal. But like I said, it's not bad, there are plenty of volunteers and it's mostly very well organized.

It was a good course and a very
