Really well organised (as other First Stride Events have been), organisers and marshalls really good humoured and friendly - was impressed that they made a last minute call to switch the direction of the Sprint Swim to counter-clockwise when the organisers saw how much some standard swimmers were struggling with the current / waves - alot of larger Tri's wouldn't have bothered.
Got lost on my bike leg - took the wrong fork with 4km to go so ended up cycling 12km further - so certainly got my money's worth! Given the rest of the cycle route was really well signposted, ive put this down to my lack of attention than lack of signage - great Tri !!

Did not receive race brief until late Saturday. Should be 24 hours at least. excellent day out, great friendly marshals. Thanks to all.

This was a really fun event at a stunning resevoir location and friendly organisers. They held the course open for a long time to allow everyone to finish and made a point to try and help everyone through how they marshalled. Big thank you to the organising team!

The only thing was the run course changed on the day due to circumstances beyond their control, and while they talked through the changes it was still quite confusing and would have been better with any kind of map that people could look at.

Great bike course: challenging and scenic. Courteous drivers at 9am on a Sunday too! Race officials really thinking on their feet e.g. changed direction on Sprint swim given conditions and revised run course. Actually the woods section was really nice! Relaxed atmosphere in transition. Super medal - really distinctive. Thoroughly enjoyable morning. I will mark this one for next year. A nice t-shirt would be good to advertise the company? Keep on going please!

Get some training miles into your legs for the cycle route. Probably not a challenge if you're a regular cyclist but the likes of me found the undulations quite taxing. Overall though this is a well run tri and has a great "feel" to it. Already in my diary to do next year.

Well run and very enjoyable. Good communication leading up to the event and very inclusive
