Water was very warm for OWS. No problems and time out of water was sub 15mins. Time was longer due to 200-300m run to transition and timimg mat.
What would you do differently?:

Swim faster.

Suit stuck on arm and had to take shoe off as tongue got stuck. Time too slow and it cost me places.

Bike leg okay despite first 5 mile being into 25mph head wind. Lost time to a car stopping in front of me suddenly. Had to unclip.

Pedal faster!

Decent transition. Better than T1.

Comments:

Paced myself okay as I intended running the last half mile faster. Really unhappy that it turned out to be 4km course rather than the 5km advertised. I had just started to up my pace when I came round a bend to find the finish line 100yds ahead.
What would you do differently?:

Run course before event.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Poor T1. High winds.

Event comments:

Excellent event. I would recommend to others.
